Description: Custom sessions handler using Metabase calls crashes Apache
I have included in the downloadable file a full installation of Metabase and also a
session handler that uses plain old MySQL calls to save the session information (this
does *not* crash the server and is there to help with your testing -- it is called
mysql_sessions.php and can be tested just by including it in the nabsession_test.php
and nabsession_test2.php scripts in the place of metabase_sessions.php.)

When a custom session handler is set up that points to functions that use Manuel
Lemos' Metabase database abstraction library to save session information in a
database, Apace crashes randomly. When it does not crash, the code works as it is
supposed to.
For code necessary to recreate problem please download this file:
http://www.aralbalkan.com/php_sessions_bug/metabase_sessions.zip
It includes all necessary code (including the database schema, database schema
installation script, the Metabase custom session handler functions and two small test
scripts that use these to increment a variable.
After you have installed the database schema (metatest1-schema-install.php) and
entered the settings for you database in db_init.php please run nabsession_test.php
and click on the link for the second page and try reloading.
Randomly, your web server will crash. When it doesn't crash, the registered session
variable will update correctly.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you need any further information. Manuel Lemos,
the author of Metabase is aware of the problem and believes that the problem is with
the PHP custom session handler code.
When the Metabase calls are replaced with direct calls to MySLQ (to
