This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Bug still exists in PHP 5.2.5.
 [2008-01-15 07:29 UTC] aigors at inbox dot lv
Yes, it appears that bug is in the snapshots also.
 [2008-01-26 01:07 UTC] jani@php.net
Antony..you claimed to have fixed this? :)
 [2008-02-09 01:14 UTC] stas@php.net
Breaks for me in 5.3CVS head too.
 [2008-08-13 20:09 UTC] jani@php.net
Does not crash (in Linux, non ZTS) with latest snapshots of PHP_5_2 and PHP_5_3 branches.
 [2009-06-15 09:18 UTC] aigors at inbox dot lv
Fails for me with PHP Version 5.2.10RC2 with the same test case.
 [2009-06-15 09:26 UTC] aigors at inbox dot lv
Also fails with the latest snapshot 5.2.10RC3-dev with build date Jun 14 2009 23:39:25.
 [2009-06-29 10:57 UTC] tony2001@php.net
Not reproducible with latest 5.2, but I do see some problems in 5.3 under Valgrind.
Dmitry, please check this out.

I made a crash report when running script with stable 5.2.10 PHP version with the php.ini-dist. It can be found in http://gedrox.no-ip.org/php/CrashHang_Report__PID_5880__06292009141703437.mht.
 [2009-06-29 13:54 UTC] dmitry@php.net
The crash occurs because the compiler is not reinterant and this test case makes recursive compiler call. Of course it's not a good idea to call include from error handler.

I think it's not possible to make compiler reinterant in 5.2 (because if binary compatibility), we can just disable recursive calls and emit coresponding error message. It's not a perfect decision as well, as it may break some code which worked before.

Even for 5.3 it's not a simple fix but a big feature that may delay GA release.

Hi all,
does it mean that is already fixed in CVS version (5.2x and 5.3x) branches?

thank you
Ondrej

Please try using this snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.3-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:

  http://windows.php.net/snapshots/

I can not reproduce this with either latest 5.2 (basically 5.2.11) or 
5.3.1RC1 under Linux (non ZTS builds). 
 [2009-09-25 23:25 UTC] aigors at inbox dot lv
Still crashes with 5.2.11 on Windows XP OS.

After the dmitry comment I've understood that this issue is going to the "wontfix" status.
