Description:
------------
an attempt to load an xsl template file, which has an open/close tag mismatch problem, finishes with a segmentation fault. Always works ok on windows system (generates an error message) but crashes on Linux Debian Etch. Problem is reproduced on 5.1.6 and 5.2.2 versions of PHP, no other versions have been tested.

Reproduce code:
---------------
class Xtp extends XSLTProcessor {
		public function __construct() {
			$this->registerPHPFunctions();
			$xsl = new DOMDocument();
			$xsl->resolveExternals = true;
			$xsl->substituteEntities = true;

			if ($template = $this->locateTemplate()) {
				$xsl->load($template);
				$this->importStyleSheet($xsl); /* SEG FAULT */
			}
		}

Expected result:
----------------
An error message like this:  DOMDocument::load() [function.DOMDocument-load]: Opening and ending tag mismatch: ...

Actual result:
--------------
error handling function is called (if any is set with set_error_handler($func)), on the return of this function segfault appears.

The problem is present also if an undeclared entity (&foobar;) is used inside the xsl file

Here is the script:
<?php
$xsltProcessor = new XSLTProcessor();
$xslDom = new DOMDocument();
$xslDom->load(dirname(__FILE__).'/test.xsl');
$xsltProcessor->importStyleSheet($xslDom); // SEG FAULT
?>
This is the content of "test.xsl", note that <br> tag is not closed

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
	<br>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

<?php
$xsl = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
	<br>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>';

$xsltProcessor = new XSLTProcessor();
$xslDom = new DOMDocument();
$xslDom->loadXML($xsl);
$xsltProcessor->importStyleSheet($xslDom);
?>

You might want to try using xsltproc command line to see if it crashes there as well (indicating not a PHP issue). Also, try upgrading your libxml2 and libxslt libraries.
It's working fine on linux with libxml2-2.6.23 and libxslt-1.1.15

Works for me on Linux Fedora 6.

No crash from command line.

Crashes with:
Debian 2.6.18-4-686
Apache/2.2.3 (Debian) 
PHP/5.2.0-8+etch4
libxml2 2.6.27
libxslt 1.1.19
