Description:
------------
Trying to generate a swf file led to a segmentation fault.
(used the example found on your webpage http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.swf.php)

here is the configure line:
'./configure' '--prefix=/usr/local/php4' '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs' '--with-exec-dir=/usr/local/php4/bin' '--with-mysql' '--with-zlib' '--with-gd' '--with-swf=/home/oby/work/dist' '--with-pear' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib'

Only thing changed in the php.ini was allow_call_time_pass_reference (was ON, changed it to OFF)

Reproduce code:
---------------
It is the Example 1. SWF Example from the php.net website
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.swf.php

Expected result:
----------------
Not very sure, but not a segmentation fault :)

Actual result:
--------------
Starting program: /usr/local/php4/bin/php /var/www/html/flash_php/index.php

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Me again, problem seems to be caused by

swf_definefont(10, "Mod");

and

swf_definetext(11, "This be Flash wit PHP!", 1);

removed those lines and the swf file got generated with the desired effect.

Right, well i guess that was my bad or something, it works just fine if i place the fonts/ dir in the working folder of the application. From my point of view this bug report is absolete, but there should be a way other then symlinking or  placing the fonts/ dir in the working folder.
