It has been tried on the following configurations and the problem persists:

For convenience I'm gonna copy the description of the original bug as it seem relevant and I guess the problem is the same:
-----

In the following Script 1 and Script 2, the created objects are not destructed until the engine shutdowns because of a reference cycle.

The objects hold a reference to an anonymous function that itself hold a reference to the object.

It seems that the garbage collector is unable to break the cycle.

Script 3 doesn't leak memory because the anonymous function doesn't hold a reference to the object.

Test script:
---------------
# Script 1 (leaks)

<?php

class Foo
{
    public $x;

    public function __construct() {
        $this->x = function() {};
    }
}

echo memory_get_usage(), "\n";

for ($i = 0; $i < 100000; ++$i) {
    new Foo;
}
gc_collect_cycles();

echo memory_get_usage(), "\n";
?>

# Script 2 (leaks)

<?php

class Foo
{
    public $x;

    public function __construct() {
        $self = $this;
        $this->x = function() use ($self) {};
    }
}

echo memory_get_usage(), "\n";

for ($i = 0; $i < 100000; ++$i) {
    new Foo;
}
gc_collect_cycles();

echo memory_get_usage(), "\n";

?>

# Script 3 (does not leak)

<?php

class Foo
{
    public $x;

    public function __construct() {
        $this->x = get_fun();
    }
}

function get_fun() {
    return function() {};
}

echo memory_get_usage(), "\n";

for ($i = 0; $i < 1000; ++$i) {
    new Foo;
}
gc_collect_cycles();

echo memory_get_usage(), "\n";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Memory usage before and after is approximately the same:

nikola@nikola-450G1:~$ php script3.php 
237944
238152


Actual result:
--------------
Objects are never freed and memory usage increases:

nikola@nikola-450G1:~$ php script1.php 
237296
1220536

nikola@nikola-450G1:~$ php script2.php 
237848
1221256
