Description:
------------
segfault caused by setting properties to null in __destruct()

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

class Person {
	public $dad;
	public function __destruct() {
		$this->dad = null; /* no segfault if this is commented out */
	}
}

class Dad extends Person {
	public $son;
	public function __construct() {
		$this->son = new Person;
		$this->son->dad = $this; /* no segfault if this is commented out */
	}
	public function __destruct() {
		$this->son = null;
		parent::__destruct(); /* segfault here */
	}
}

$o = new Dad;
unset($o);

?>

Expected result:
----------------
No segfault

Actual result:
--------------
PHP crashes due to a segfault (crashes apache worker thread when running as apache module)

Dmitry, please check it out.
Looks like a chicken-and-egg problem to me.

Verified this bug with all 5.0.x and 5.1.x versions on both OS (except 5.1.2 on Debian; currently compiling for a backtrace)
