Description:
------------
When running the unit test for my application, some code that uses the ps PECL extension crashes with a seg fault. gdb backtrace is below.

Test script:
---------------
The code that generates the error is proprietary, and I don't have a test script yet that will produce the error. I'll update the bug if I manage to get one.

Actual result:
--------------
(gdb) run vendor/bin/phpunit path/to/my/directory
Starting program: /usr/bin/php vendor/bin/phpunit path/to/my/directory
[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".

 [2017-02-18 22:22 UTC] ian at gumstix dot com 
I've created a test script that reproduces the bug. It is here:

-Package: Reproducible crash +Package: ps
 [2017-03-02 18:45 UTC] ian at gumstix dot com 
Changed package to "ps" because I just encountered this bug in production code (as opposed to while running PHPUnit tests) that uses the ps extension.

-PHP Version: 7.1.2 +PHP Version: 7.1.3
 [2017-03-21 15:54 UTC] ian at gumstix dot com 
Still occurs in PHP 7.1.3.
 [2017-04-04 08:43 UTC] bugsphpnet888 at allanid dot com 
I experience the same problem. Having the same PHP version (7.1.3) but on a Debian 8.7. It gives strange artifacts my remaining PHP code. It somehow manages to cause the PHP script to be run multiple times - so if I run a script that adds a database record the record might be added 3 times!

I need to use the ps_hyphenate() function to hyphenate text. Using this extension is the only method I have found to do it, so I really need this bug fixed.

 [2017-05-30 21:49 UTC] ian at gumstix dot com 
I'm changing the package from "ps" to "Reproducible crash" based on the comment thread in bug 74676, which suggests that this is not actually a bug in the Postscript extension.

Commenting out the call to ps_delete() seems to solve the problem.
