Description:
------------
system/version info at bottom

the lighttpd errorlog has these entries on a regular basis

2007-12-04 12:33:25: (mod_fastcgi.c.2462) unexpected end-of-file (perhaps the fastcgi process died): pid: 95332 socket: unix:/var/run/lighttpd/php-fastcgi.socket-0
2007-12-04 12:33:25: (mod_fastcgi.c.3269) response already sent out, but backend returned error on socket: unix:/var/run/lighttpd/php-fastcgi.socket-0 for /shop/rwf.php , terminating connection

2007-12-04 12:49:45: (mod_fastcgi.c.2462) unexpected end-of-file (perhaps the fastcgi process died): pid: 95332 socket: unix:/var/run/lighttpd/php-fastcgi.socket-0
2007-12-04 12:49:45: (mod_fastcgi.c.3269) response already sent out, but backend returned error on socket: unix:/var/run/lighttpd/php-fastcgi.socket-0 for /shop/rwf.php , terminating connection

The PID quoted is always the PID of the parent php process (which has 16 worker children). 

Load is about 3 php-fastcgi requests per second.

Only a very small proportion of requests is affected. There appears to be no pattern in the url requested that triggers these errors (see log dump above).

In addition we are getting 

zend_mm_heap corrupted

printed on root's shell (presumably from the php-fastcgi process). These occur less often then the errors in lighty's log. 

Before we switched to lighttpd last week, we were getting apache segfaults at a similar frequency (perhaps a little lower).

We have played with the 
"PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS" => "5000"
from 100 to 10,000. makes no difference.

Very happy to work with someone to get detailed debug info, but will need some direction in how to do that under fastcgi.

issue appears to be related the unresolved:

Reproduce code:
---------------
no pattern 

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

Actual result:
--------------
don't have a backtrace yet... working on that. also going to definitvely prove that disabling APC eliminates the errors.

actually when i managed to turn off apc briefly (without causing server meltdown ;-) ) it turned out that the flow of errors continues. ie APC is not to blame.

i did find the resolution however:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43295
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43476

and i patched my FreeBSD port accordinly with the 2 line diff here:
http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php-src/main/SAPI.c?r1=1.202.2.7.2.15&r2=1.202.2.7.2.16&pathrev=PHP_5_2&diff_format=u 

the result was no errors at all...neither in the lighty log nor on root's console.

saved here for someone to google
