Bug #24573 debug_backtrace crashes if $this set to null

Description:
------------
debug_backtrace crashes PHP if called from a class method after $this is set to null.

Reproduce code:
---------------
The following script illustrates the problem:

<?php

class Foo {
  function Bar() {
    $__this = $this;
//    unset($this);
    $this = null;
    print_r(debug_backtrace());
    $this = $__this;
  } 
}

$f = new Foo;

$f->Bar();

?>

Strangely, if you use unset instead of assigning $this to null, the crash does not occur.

Actual result:
--------------
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
