The problem here is that we don't SAVE_OPLINE in all places where an OOM condition might occur -- and I doubt we want to.

However, in 7.4 EX(opline) is no longer initialized at all (until a SAVE_OPLINE in a throwing opcode), which means that we may crash when trying to fetch the current line number on OOM.

I think that we should bring back EX(opline) initialization in init_func_execute_data. @dmitry: Do you see any other way?
