It is compiled as an Apache module (1.2.6) and this httpd
does a general protection fault a few times a day. Since I
started using PHP the machine it runs on crashes regularly
as well.

I get lots of messages like this in the syslog:

I can't reproduce it but maybe you have some ideas how to
make it possible to reproduce it?

That's a kernel OOPS, we can't cause it even if we wanted
to, it's in the kernel level.  It might be exploited due to 
code that PHP is executing, but still, there's really
nothing we can do about it.
If your sites runs a lot of complex scripts and its load
went up since you installed PHP, your machine might be
running hot and misbehaving.  Kernel OOPS's are usually
either due to bad hardware, or kernel/driver bugs.

You may try asking for help on the Linux kernel list,
they may be able to make sense out of these traces.
