Description:
------------
I've installed pdflib on a Fedora Core 2 apache 2.0.50-2, with php-4.3.8 and then with 2.0.54 and php-4.3.9 with a same result.
I'm using PDFlib-6.0.0p1 from pdflib gmbh site and in first i was using their dso modules but result was the same.

I rebuilded all packages with debug code in but i had to move to pdflib-2.0.2 to be able to monitor what is going on. (their dso for lib6 are stripped and so are php i386 binaries from distribution)

When i commented this lines out in pdf.c
/*              convert_to_double_ex(argv[2]);
                modifier = Z_DVAL_PP(argv[2]); */
                modifier = 0.0;
everything worked like charm. I can see that modifier param in php5 is not mandatory any more but i'm still using 4.3.x so it should.
I can do two things:
include third param in calling the function or you can modify source to comply with 4.3.x specs.
you should adress this bug(?) cause pear install pdflib does not work on 4.3.x version
Thanks

Reproduce code:
---------------
try pdflib on FC2. with pdf_get_parameter
all test.php work. don't rely on them.

the only thing you can see is:
tail /var/log/httpd/error_log

[Thu Oct 21 03:17:55 2004] [notice] child pid 7864 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)
...


Expected result:
----------------
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
