Hi All,

Hope someone can help. 

We have recently started to have an issue with php version 7.0.16++, after around 10 days of uptime httpd dies and refuses to start up no matter what, the only way to get httpd to start up is rebooting. 

Running a backtrace on the faulted serverI get the following

I can confim I have 

php_admin_value default_socket_timeout 3

in the httpd.conf, however the segmentation fault basically complains about the first defined instance of any php_admin_value that is set in the config file. 

I can configrm that when trying to start httpd there is no other httpd processes running, howevber the segmentation fault / backtrace is the same if running and re-running the bactrace, only rebooting the server does in the end fix the problem and allow httpd to start. 

Server is running httpd 2.4.18 and php 7.0.19, and this affects multiple servers.


Test script:
---------------
Unfortunatly there is no test script 

Expected result:
----------------
No segmentation fault

Actual result:
--------------
Segmentation fault

Does this still happen to you with any of actively supported PHP
