The attached patch (not from me), used in Fedora, fixes the segfault.

This patch causes memory leaks. I will take a look and see if I can fix the issue.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

This code produced some memory leaks before the patch. The patch did introduce 
some more memory leaks, but I have fixed those.

Note to myself to find the other memory leaks: 
valgrind --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes php -d 
extension=modules/memcache.so tests/pecl63142.php

Sorry to reopen, but with commit 327754 things are really awfull. 
Much more segfault (ex with the simple test/002.phpt)
 [2012-09-25 07:25 UTC] hradtke@php.net
The entire test-suite passed for me. I will take another look though.

I can do more test if you need
 [2012-09-26 07:06 UTC] hradtke@php.net
I just realized this bug has all to do with the fact that the object references 
itself:
$obj->obj = $obj;

I can also reproduce with
$arr['arr'] = $arr;
 [2013-03-18 20:50 UTC] evangelos at foutrelis dot com
Is there going to be a fix for this?

I have a pending request to downgrade the Arch Linux php-memcache package to 2.2.7 [1] due to these segfaults, but most Linux distributions appear to ship 3.0.x so I'd rather not go back to 2.2.x.

 [2013-03-18 21:12 UTC] hradtke@php.net
This bug is some internals voodoo that is beyond me. I will ask again for some 
direction from some of the more experienced PHP people.

Try the new patch (attached).
 [2013-03-19 12:59 UTC] evangelos at foutrelis dot com
bug63142.diff seems to fix the issue for me; no segfaults and no apparent memory leaks.

Thanks.

(8 of the 72 tests fail for me, but they also fail without the patch so I suppose it's not related.)
 [2013-03-19 13:08 UTC] hradtke@php.net
All tests pass if the environment is setup correctly. Give me a few hours and I 
will run through everything and merge in.

Thanks Tony!
 [2013-03-19 14:34 UTC] tony2001@php.net
There's a minor problem in tests/053.phpt:
==28901== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)
==28901==    at 0x5D702B: ps_write_memcache (memcache_session.c:426)
==28901==    by 0x4E285A: php_session_save_current_state (session.c:489)

==28901==    by 0x4E810B: zif_session_write_close (session.c:1910)

But it's not related to this particular issue in any way.

Committed the changes. Will do a release this weekend.
 [2013-03-27 12:27 UTC] arjen at react dot com
This fix works fine. Thanks!

However, without a new version we have no way to detect if we have a good or bad 
memcache 3.0.7 release. Could you release a new 3.0.8 version?
