Description:
------------
I have the same problems as reported in bug #27070. When running pretty simple preg_match'es on medium size subjects (a few 10.000 bytes), apache crashes reporting:

[Thu Jan 04 11:27:11 2007] [notice] child pid 2793 exit signal Illegal instruction (4)

I have tried with the same code as reported in #27070 - it crashes.

The scripts that crashes in real world do not crash in php 4.X.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
# This script crashes Apache :

$subject = str_repeat("a",13800);
preg_match("/(a)*/",$subject);
echo "OK";

# NB: The length of $subject (here 13800) may depend on
# your system. It seems to be related to the memory_limit
# directive (mine is 8M) but not in the way that
# one would expect (it doesn't seem to be something
# like "If I give more memory, then I need a larger
# subject to crash Apache").
# It doesn't crash if I use the pattern "/a*/" instead
# of "/(a)*/".
?>


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

Actual result:
--------------
This is the httpd-error.log: [Thu Jan 04 11:27:11 2007] [notice] child pid 2793 exit signal Illegal instruction (4)

This is what I can produce from the coredump. Don't know if that's what is asked for?
