Description:
------------
[This is http://bugs.debian.org/440775]

Whenever the templates/translations are changed and the .mo files regenerated, PHP instances start to crash. Most likely they do not detect file change and still treate it as old one. Restarting PHP solves this.


Actual result:

(I know suhosin is there, but it is irrelevant as the bug report was originally reported with a version of Debian's php5 package which was not built with suhosin).

That's actually bug in gettext itself. And actually "feature". It was never meant to support changing the .mo file during runtime. We can't do anything in PHP to prevent the crash, unless there's some support from gettext itself to allow this..

BTW: There is quite simple testcase in the Debian BTS:
