Description:
------------
PHP doesn't handle an attempt of clearing $GLOBALS correctly.

Reproduce code:
---------------
function __(){array_splice($GLOBALS,0,count($GLOBALS));}__();

Expected result:
----------------
$GLOBALS should be empty or an error message should be printed.

Actual result:
--------------
My tests:

PHP 4.3.8 cli/cgi, 4.3.10 cli, Linux 2.6:
segmentation fault

PHP 4.3.8 apache2sapi, Windows XP SP2:
Apache2 log: Parent: child process exited with status 3221225477 -- Restarting.

PHP 5.0.1 cli, Windows XP SP2:
array_splice works, but then crashes on script end (probably during cleanups) or on phpinfo();

Fixed in CVS HEAD and PHP_5_0.
 [2005-07-04 13:14 UTC] derick@php.net
Let's keep it open for now, so that we don't forget to backport it to 4.4.1 as soon as 4.4.0 is out.
 [2005-07-11 18:26 UTC] dmitry@php.net
Fixed in CVS PHP_4_4 too.
