Description:
------------
there are ext/pcntl/tests failures due it using $TEST_PHP_EXECUTABLE which uses 
installed php 
config, but tests should be self-contained and use config extensions from BUILT 
codebase.

for example if i have installed php 5.3 and i try to run tests on 5.4 i get 
errors:

+ /usr/bin/make -j16 test EXTENSION_DIR=modules 
PHP_TEST_SHARED_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS= 
RUN_TESTS_SETTINGS=-q ext/pcntl/tests/pcntl_exec_2.phpt --show-out

Build complete.
Don't forget to run 'make test'.

From the trace it looks like you are using some old dynamically linked libraries thats compiled to a different version that the one you are using (see the APINO).

Packages like PCRE and SPL should be statically compiled anyway, although I don't reckon we have any issues using dynamically loaded ones.

err, i know all that

the bug is that "make test" is using modules from to-be-installed path, where 
could be installed other version of php

so the patch is to enforce currently built version of php config and modules of 
php-cli that is invoked from tests itself

"make test" itself already does the php invocation properly, but invoking 
$PHP_TEST_EXECUTABLE from tests should do the same.

i've included patch for two tests i saw failing. i would proceed in other exts 
if i see interest in that.

is it clear what i'm saying here? maybe just look at the patch as patch says 
more than i'm able to explain.

i.e to be independant of php version installed in system while running tests, the 
following args need to be told when invoking php cli inside each .phpt:

$args = array("-n", "-d$extension_dir", "-c$inipath", ...);

where $extension_dir is ./modules and $inipath ./php-temp.ini, without doing so 
it would read /usr/lib/php for $extension_dir and /etc/php/php.ini for $inipath

That seems like a bad workaround which would need to be repeated in many places.
run-tests maybe could export an environment variable which contained proper 
execute command..?
 [2011-09-08 11:02 UTC] glen at delfi dot ee 
i wouldn't call it workaround, but rather "changes needed to get tests run 
standalone, i.e independant what is installed in system", which is important to 
get tests run unaffected by environment details

i agree, that support from run-tests.php side would make tests simplier. would it 
be needed to document the interface somewhere?

should i try to make such patch?

so, you ask people to submit qa reports for testing, and then you don't even accept the patches!

Per @gerardroche this has been fixed in https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/a03f0943ca0384b37083d371b121f23ad2054a83.
