Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.xmlrpc-decode
---

The function xmlrpc_decode is creating a memory leak on Windows. I am using PHP 7.2.9.
I tried my code on Ubuntu and there was no memoryleak involved.

Test script:
---------------
//pseudo:

while( condition ) {
        $ch = curl_init( $xml_rpc_url . $xml_rpc_login );
      
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING ,"UTF-8");
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'POST');
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: text/xml'));
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $xml_request_query);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

        $xml_response_aa[$imported_data_type][$group_name] = xmlrpc_decode(utf8_encode(curl_exec($ch)));
        
        curl_close($ch);
        unset($ch);
}

What is the return value of `curl_exec($ch)`?
 [2018-10-05 14:26 UTC] marek dot salzinger at gmail dot com 
Its a multi dimensional array. It can have up to 600~1000 Entries.
The total length of one return value is 10933653.

The structure is:
array["type"]["group"] = array(
          'callId' => value,
          'callStepId' => value, 
          'callLegUUID' => value,
          'agentId' => value,
          'cdrAccountId' => value,
          'callerAccountId' => value,
          'calledAccountId' => value, 
          'calledCallerId' => value,
          'starttime' => value,
          'ringingtime' => value,
          'linktime' => value,
          'callresultTime' => value,
          'callResult' => value,
          'callResultCausedBy' => value,
          'lineId' => value,
          'lineName' => value,
          'answeredElsewhere' => value,
          'incoming' => value,
          'answered' => value,
          'hasVoicemail' => value,
          'hasMonitor' => value,
          'callbackNumberExtern' => value,
          'groupname' => value
);


Its formated in xml so the output is a bit of a mess. i will give you a example output, this may not create the memory leak.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<methodCall>
   <methodName>Queue.getHistoryData</methodName>

               <member>
                  <name>to</name>
                  <value>
                     <string>20160701T12:59:05</string>

Hmm, you're giving us not much.  Anyhow, I've checked this XML,
and I can't detect a memory leak.

I don't think we can do anything here without the actual XML that causes the leak.
