Description:
------------
PCRE subsystem of PHP has severul critical bugs which cause segmentation fault.

2 such bugs I report before:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47376
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47520

And many others too, for example:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27492
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47376
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27310
and others.

All this bugs closed as "Bogus" and feedback after it with questions why it is bogus but not bug have been ignored.

The main question is - "segmentation fault" from any reason may be not bug???

I can understand what it may be very hard to fix, but completely do not understand why it have been marked as Bogus!

They are marked as BOGUS because they are not a problem in PHP, this is a known issue with the PCRE library, please read the manual carefully, PCRE may overflow the stack, and is expected to abort with segmentation fault in the case.

I'm read its manual, and in it also speakint several things how handle it (f.e. with setrlimit/getrlimit system call). In any case, may be another way to fix it in your code.

So, in other words, it is official answer - PHP team may treat segmentation fault (independantly of reason) as NOT BUG and assume it is normal in production environment????
