Description:
------------
There is integer overflow in pg_escape_string function, check comment below:

PHP_FUNCTION(pg_escape_string)
{
...

	switch (ZEND_NUM_ARGS()) {
		case 1:
			if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "s", &from, &from_len) == FAILURE) {
				return;
			}
			pgsql_link = NULL;
			id = PGG(default_link);
			break;

		default:
			if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "rs", &pgsql_link, &from, &from_len) == FAILURE) {
				return;
			}
			break;
	}

	to = (char *) safe_emalloc(from_len, 2, 1); // negative size pass to safe_emalloc function
...

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

ini_set('memory_limit', -1);
$str = str_repeat('A', 0xffffffff/2-1).'\\';

var_dump(strlen($str));


$str1 = pg_escape_string($str);
var_dump(strlen($str1));
unset($str);
chunk_split($str1, 11, $str1);										
?>

Expected result:
----------------
No Crash
