Description:
------------
Using an lambda function as the argument to spl_autoload_register causes a segfault.

When storing the lambda function in a variable though, it works fine:

<?php
$l = function($name){};
spl_autoload_register($l);
new O();
?>

Using a default install.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
spl_autoload_register(function($name){});
new O();
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Fatal error: Class 'O' not found

Actual result:
--------------
Segmentation fault.

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.3-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows (zip):
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.3-win32-latest.zip

For Windows (installer):

  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.3-win32-installer-latest.msi

I can't reproduce it.

I've tried using the latest snapshot of 5.3 (php5.3-200810012230)

PHP 5.3.0alpha3-dev (cli) (built: Oct  1 2008 16:52:06) 
Copyright (c) 1997-2008 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2008 Zend Technologies

This still causes a segfault:

php -r 'spl_autoload_register(function($n){});new T();'

I`m running Ubuntu 8.04.1 inside of VirtualBox 2.0.2

Let me know if there is any other information that would be helpful.

Tested on php5.3-win32-200809251104, and it worked as expected. No segfault.

Anything else I should try?

Ok, thanks.

I've tried the 2009-01-14 snapshot on linux again, and the code is still causing a segmentation fault.

Just to be clear: it segfaults in linux, but not in windows.

Here is the code again to reproduce the bug:

# php -r 'spl_autoload_register(function($n){});new T();'
Segmentation fault

And the php version:

# php -v
PHP 5.3.0alpha4-dev (cli) (built: Jan 14 2009 01:06:21)

I'm not sure this should be marked as Bogus.

Tried again with PHP5.3RC1, and it's fixed!
