Apache child segfault when the string which contains '_' in session name is specified.
Although tried on Red Hat7.2 and Windows2000, the apache child segfault.

php.ini
session.save_handler=files

<?php
    session_id ("_index");
    session_start ();
    $_SESSION["foo"]   = "bar";
?>

Does this also happen with 4.1.1 and if, please provide a backtrace under unix (provided that you compiled both php and apache with debug symbols).

Thank you for responding, Markus.
I asked this user to submit bug report in Japanese PHP mail list.

I think I know what's wrong, but I don't have enough time create and test patch...

In mod_files.c it tests session id file chars are [0-9a-zA-Z], if not it returns 0. It seems returning false is causing this. In mod_user.c and session_pgsql.c, there is very simlar problem. Returning false for read causes segfault. 

The reason for these segfaults are the same, I guess. 
(i.e. session.c has problem when read returns false)

This bug has been fixed in CVS.
