The htmlspecialchars and htmlentities functions crash php(typical "document contains no data" error) when called with the second parameter, quote_style (ENT_COMPAT, ENT_QUOTES, ENT_NOQUOTES).

If called without the second parameter, these functions return the expected results.

May be related to Bug #18048.

Sample Script:

<?php

$string = "&\"'<>";
$temp = htmlspecialchars($string,ENT_QUOTES);
echo $temp;

?>

Configuration Command:
'--with-apache=/usr/src/apache_1.3.26' '--with-mysql' '--with-gd=/usr/local' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local' '--with-t1lib=/usr/local' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local' '--with-png-dir=/usr/local' '--with-pdflib=/usr/local' '--with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr/local' '--with-java=/usr/opt/java131' '--with-ldap=/usr/local' '--with-imap=/usr/local/lib' '--with-mcrypt=/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt' '--enable-track-vars' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-trans-sid'

Forgot to say that I can not reproduce this with php 4.2.0-dev (march 7) or php 4.3.0-dev (august 25). They both show this result:

Still crashes with PHP 4.3.0.

I do not have a license for dbx so I can't provide a backtrace, but running the example above from the command line against the cgi binary produces the following:

Unaligned access pid=25896 <php> va=0x1400c4cec pc=0x120244758 ra=0x1200bda78 inst=0xb4290000
Unaligned access pid=25896 <php> va=0x11fffdb7c pc=0x120236d64 ra=0x120237408 inst=0xb42c0000
Segmentation fault

Which compiler (and version) did you use to build the PHP binary?
Some old compilers may produce bogus codes that cause unaligned access.
