Cannot reproduce.
What is the value of $PATH? 
Did you try disabling XDebug?
 [2007-05-11 14:46 UTC] sebastian@php.net
$PATH is set to PATH=/usr/local/src/phpunit/3.1:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/php-5.2/bin:/usr/local/mysql-5.1/bin:/usr/lib/libming/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games, but $_ENV['PATH'] only has /usr/local/src/phpunit/3.1.

The problem also occurs without Xdebug.

Sorry for the noise, but I thought the valgrind outputs were different.
