Description:
------------
There seems to be a crash in 5.3.3 when trying to access the value of a $GLOBALS 
array variable when there is another $GLOBALS variable is used as an index.  This 
worked in 5.3.2.



Test script:
---------------
<?php

$GLOBALS['foo'] = array('foo0','foo1');
$GLOBALS['bar'] = 0;

echo $GLOBALS['foo'][$GLOBALS['bar']];

?>

Expected result:
----------------
I expect to see 'foo0' echoed.

Actual result:
--------------
Causes a crash in 5.3.3.

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a backtrace to see what is happening behind the scenes. To
find out how to generate a backtrace, please read
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php for *NIX and
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace-win32.php for Win32

Once you have generated a backtrace, please submit it to this bug
report and change the status back to "Open". Thank you for helping
us make PHP better.

I cannot reproduce this. Are you using some extension that touches in the engine?

Sorry, I had eAccelerator installed and that seemed to be causing the problem.  I 
removed it and it worked as expected.  I apologize for being an idiot.
