Hi! PHP 4.2.1 gets a SIGSEGV in sem_remove().

The code in ext/sysvsem/sysvsem.c seems to forget the allocation of the buf member of the semun struct when it calls to semctl().

I solved it adding:
   struct semid_ds semidbuf;
to the declaration of local variables, and:
   un.buf = &semidbuf;
before each call to semctl();

I configured PHP using:

configure --enable-sysvshm --enable-sysvsem --with-curl=/usr/local/lib/libcurl.a --enable-pcntl

This is the gdb stack trace:
