Description:
------------
I have json data to decode using php api: json_decode(), 
But I found if there is a number of 0000 instead of 0. Such 
API will case thread of apache2 take 100% of cpu resource for about 
1 mins. 

I know 0000 is the legal number, but I think there should be a way to 
indicate that apache cannot handle, instead of just running exhausted.

Hoping this is useful for other developer. 
Thanks a lot.

Expected result:
----------------
Send some warning information.

I can't reproduce the cpu usage from cli on 5.3.5.

Looking at the json spec the number isn't valid.

I passed it through a linter too and you get.


syntax error, unexpected TNUMBER, expecting '}'
