I use debian stable (except apache which is debian package 1.3.14-2 and php which I compile myself)

4.2.0 (and also 4.2.1RC2) generates Segfaults on everything, actually, I tried to generate bt, but not very successfull, here it is

I terminated the process with Ctrl-C because it actually hanged for quite a long time. Here is how I compile php

./configure --prefix=/usr \
        --with-apxs=/usr/bin/apxs \
        --with-config-file-path=/etc/php4/apache \
        --enable-debug=yes \
        --enable-safe-mode \
        --with-exec-dir=/usr/bin \
        --with-system-regex \
        --with-mysql=/usr \
        --with-pgsql \
        --with-zlib \
        --with-gd --with-gd-native-ttf --with-ttf \
        --enable-track-vars \
        --enable-magic-quotes \
        --with-imap \
        --with-xml

for the previous versions it worked OK (i mean 4.1.2 and older)

usually I compile php with --enable-debug=no, but for the backtrace I compiled it with 'yes'. When it is compiled with yes however some pages are working (for example phpMyAdmin is working with --enable-debug=yes, but otherwise not), and still others are not working.

Also when compiled with --enable-debug=no in error_log of apache apeared some more messages except the ones for segfault:
FATAL:  emalloc():  Unable to allocate 1088956328 bytes
with this option to 'yes' didn't happen to see such message

(P.S. on my dev server which unfortunally is not debian stable, everything works fine)

You're version of Apache might be too old. Try upgrading to a more recent version.

Unfortunatly the packages from debian with newer apaches are and for newer libc and so on, and this should mean that upgrading the hole system (which is not likely to happen until debian release woody as stable).

As I suppose it could be not only that apache is old but the other libraries are old too (debian potato everything is quite old)

So if it is not possible to repair I'll wait for woody and till then keep with php-4.1.2 (but if a patch for the newer PHPs is available I'll be glad :)

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a backtrace to see what is happening behind the scenes. To
find out how to generate a backtrace, please read
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php

Once you have generated a backtrace, please submit it to this bug
report and change the status back to "Open". Thank you for helping
us make PHP better.

That backtrace is pretty useless..although it does seem
that this crash does happen in Apache, NOT PHP.

No feedback was provided. The bug is being suspended because
we assume that you are no longer experiencing the problem.
If this is not the case and you are able to provide the
information that was requested earlier, please do so and
change the status of the bug back to "Open". Thank you.
