Description:
------------
Sending the following string to strtotime results in PHP crashing.

PHPinfo: http://www.neg9.com/info.php


Reproduce code:
---------------
$str = "999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 days ago";

// Taken from the PHP manual
if (($timestamp = strtotime($str)) === false) {
  echo "The string ($str) is bogus";
  } else {
  echo "$str == " . date('l dS of F Y h:i:s A', $timestamp);
  }

Expected result:
----------------
The string (999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 days ago) is bogus

Actual result:
