Description:
------------
PHP crashes on session_start() if object "foo" references to object "bar" and both "foo" and "bar" are put into session explicitly each into it's element.

The example below will work if we comment line:
$_SESSION['bar'] = $bar;
the only one "foo" is put to session explicitly and "bar" is also put, but as a member of "foo".

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
class foo {
	public $bar = NULL;
}
class bar {}
//=============================[]
	$foo = new foo();
	$bar = new bar();
	$foo->bar = $bar;
	session_start();
	$_SESSION['foo'] = $foo;
	$_SESSION['bar'] = $bar;	// it will be all right, if we comment this

	session_write_close();
	session_start();	// crashing here
	echo "OK";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
OK

Actual result:
--------------
In browser:
"The page cannot be displayed"

Sorry, but when I add --enable-debug to my configure the bug "dissapeared", the example script worked fine. The crashe takes place only in the debugless version, it's backtrace hardly can help you:

Program terminated with signal 10, Bus error.

It is a bad sign, it may mean buffer overflow anywhere in the program, i suppose. It may be difficult to find the bug. I'm ready to provide any help in catching it...

Nevermind, could reproduce. Only happens without --enable-debug! Here's the backtrace:
