Description:
------------
I'm having trouble with my server(s) for some weeks now and did not find any solution for now. My System is Opensuse 10.1 (32 bit) with Apache 2.2.3 and PHP 4.4.4 as apache module (also tried latest stable CVS, but wasn't the solution).


Im having abrupt segmentation faults in my Apache errorlog. Most frequently the problem seems to appear while accessing the start page of an actual Joomla installation, but i've had the error with an Worpress too. So it cannot be isolated to some php Scripts. Sadly i am not able to reproduce this error - when it appears it will not go until an apache restart, but then everything works fine for some time (maybe hours or even days).

Reproduce code:
---------------
Sorry, for now i dont know how to reproduce this error.

Expected result:
----------------
No segfault

Actual result:
--------------
Here is a gdb backtrace of the request which died with a segmentation fault. If you need any further details, tell me, and please also tell me how to obtain this information ;-) .
