Description:
------------
PHP crashs on incorrectly use of list() function. If list has more arguments than the input array has elements, then PHP crashs and prints the message "File size limit exceeded". 



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?

# this code was test only in command line
# the interpreter never reach line 7
$foobar = Array( "1");
list( $foo , $bar ) = array_values( $foobar ) ;
print "foobar\n" ;

?>

Expected result:
----------------
"foobar"

Actual result:
--------------
File size limit exceeded

Just fixing the summary.

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a backtrace to see what is happening behind the scenes. To
find out how to generate a backtrace, please read
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php for *NIX and
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace-win32.php for Win32

Once you have generated a backtrace, please submit it to this bug
report and change the status back to "Open". Thank you for helping
us make PHP better.

I can't reproduce it.

Sorry! my mistake.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.
