Description:
------------
Please excuse me for my english, but i am french...

So i found a problem with ctype_digit() function, who seems to crash PHP with a big (or not ?) integer.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$id = 1000000000;
ctype_digit($id);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
A warning or something like that, because $id is an integer, but not a segfault...

Actual result:
--------------
nothing, except a new line in my apache error_log file : 

[Thu Aug 26 00:00:18 2004] [notice] child pid 3877 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

It seems the bug comes from ctype librairy : 
 
#include <ctype.h> 
 
int main(int argc, char ** argv) { 
  int i  = isdigit(1000000000); 
} 
 
$ gcc test.c -o plop 
$ ./plop 
Segmentation fault
