Description:
------------
Throwing an exception from a generator under certain conditions produces a segfault. Happens with php 5.5.9 and php 5.6.16. Seems to be fixed with php 7.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$a = function() {
    try {
        yield 1;
    } finally {
        throw new Exception();
    }
};

$b = function() {
    yield 1;
};

echo "starting " . phpversion() . "\n";
try {
    foreach ($a() as $x) {
        foreach ($b() as $y) {
            return true;
        }
    }
} catch (Exception $e) {
    echo "caught exception.\n";
}
echo "exit.\n";

Expected result:
----------------
starting 7.0.0
caught exception.
exit.

Actual result:
--------------
OUTPUT:
starting 5.6.16

could you try to test agian by "php -n" , which will disable all other third-part extensions.

Test on my local installation:

$ php -n coredump.php
starting 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.14
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Also happens with php -n on clean docker images php:5.5-cli (5.5.30) and php:5.6-cli (5.6.16).

Reproduces for me on 5.6:

Closing as this has been fixed in PHP 7.0 and PHP 5.6 is going out of active support.
