Description:
------------
I use only native PHP code with no extra plugins loaded.
The PHP 5.3.1 crashes and consumes all the RAM when I use the script below.
This also happens to all the versions after 5.3.1.


Test script:
---------------
    class Test_Crash
    {
        private $virtual_func;   
        public function __construct()
        {
            $this->virtual_func = new Test_Crash;
        }
    }

Did actually crash? Can you provide a backtrace? It's normal it consumes all the RAM (if you have no memory limit), since you are allocating memory recursively and indefinitely.
