Meant to say if the same apache process is hit, it won't grow higher,
but every apache process that is hit grows to the high level of this
script (`21M, which will swap the machine to death eventually). 

It's only this data structure that leaks, if I change it slightly it
doesn't leak, so I'm guessing it's the garbage collector.

Mike:  

Please just run this below script on your machine, and then use top,
hit 'M' to sort by memory and apache will be the top memory user.  hit
the script 10 times and your machine will start swapping to death.

This appears to be apache related: if the same script is hit, it
doesn't leak MORE memory, it stays at the outrageously high level it
got to the first time. 

<?php
ini_set("memory_limit", "64M");
function make_arr() {
   for($i=0; $i<396768; $i++)
        $a[sprintf("%05d",$i)] = array(0 => "PHPLEAKS923889239823", 1
=>
"PHPLEAK2349082349898");
   return $a;
}
for($i=0;$i<10;$i++)
  $zip[$i] = make_arr();
for($i=0;$i<10;$i++)
   preg_match("/asdfl/", $zip[$i]["00601"][0]);
?>

Any evidence like valgrind etc?

The OS releases memory when it needs it.

Arrays of arrays leak memory in many PHP versions.

Here, fully contained version that will make a 131M leak in 12 lines. 
<?php
ini_set("memory_limit", "64M");
function make_arr() {
   for($i=0; $i<396768; $i++)
        $a[sprintf("%05d",$i)] = array(0 => "PHPLEAKS923889239823", 1
=> "PHPLEAK2349082349898");
   return $a;
}
for($i=0;$i<10;$i++)
  $zip[$i] = make_arr();
for($i=0;$i<10;$i++)
   preg_match("/asdfl/", $zip[$i]["00601"][0]);
?>
