Description:
------------
If PHP page uses XTPL library (http://xtpl.sf.net), then writing to $_SESSION causes Apache to crash.

Though commenting body of method scan_globals() (class XTemplate) neutralize bug:
...
function scan_globals () {
  reset($GLOBALS);
  foreach ($GLOBALS as $k => $v) {
    $GLOB[$k] = $v;
  }
  $this->assign('PHP', $GLOB); /* access global variables as {PHP.HTTP_SERVER_VARS.HTTP_HOST} in your template! */
}
...
function assign ($name, $val = '') {
  if (is_array($name)) {
    foreach ($name as $k => $v) {
      $this->vars[$k] = $v;
    }
  } else {
    $this->vars[$name] = $val;
  }
}
...

Reproduce code:
---------------
Download any last version of XTPL library from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=16714

Create test template-file 'test.html':
<!-- BEGIN: main -->
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
<!-- END: main -->

Create and test php file:
<?php
require_once('XTemplate.php');

session_start();

$xtpl = new XTemplate('test.html');

$_SESSION['TEST'] = "test";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Expected no errors.

Actual result:
--------------
Apache crashes. Windows shows popup:
"Apache HTTP Server has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

szAppName: httpd.exe
szAppVer: 2.2.4.0
