Description:
------------
When using php extensions with php in sapi mode, the extensions fail to load because of 'missing symbols'. While PHP5.0 works perfectly fine, about 10 different 5.1 versions i've tried don't. I've only tested this with the runkit extension, but I'm quite certain it's a php bug. The CLI version of php5.1 doesn't give any error either.

Steps used to compile the extension: http://public.emielmols.info/runkit.log
Debug log: http://public.emielmols.info/runkit_c.log

PHPInfo: http://public.emielmols.info/phpinfo.php

Using apache2.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
    dl("runkit.so");
?>
(using extension loading in php.ini makes no difference)

Expected result:
----------------
Loading of the module

Actual result:
--------------
Error message (when loading from ini):
PHP Warning:  PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/projects/emielmols.info/cms/misc/runkit.so' - /projects/emielmols.info/cms/misc/runkit.so: undefined symbol: _zval_ptr_dtor in Unknown on line 0

It just means that your installed php extension build environment is out-dated and not compatible with 5.1..

Not true, i've reinstalled the build- and headerfiles. It does work with CLI build of the same version.

Furthermore, if you check the symbol defenition (in Zend/zend_vm.h), you'll see that this specific symbol should be exported in both php 5.0 and 5.1. Perhaps someone can enlighten me on de differences in the exporting of symbols between SAPI/CLI version and/or PHP5.0/PHP5.1, so I can do some debugging myself too.

They're exported just fine. Rebogusing.

I don't believe this. I've been stuck with this bug for about 2 weeks now and put in a LOT of hours trying to fix it myself. Finally, I decide to submit the bug here so someone experienced with the zend engine can perhaps have a look at it. And now you're just telling me my problem doesn't exist (or that I'm just stupid and the problem is not in the php core/zend engine)? Come on, something definately has changed from 5.0 sapi > 5.1 sapi, for it did work flawlessly with 5.0 and for now appearant reason it does not with 5.1. With the CLI it works for both of them. Now you tell me, how can this NOT be a php problem?

The problem isn't in PHP core / Zend.
