Description:
------------
Using the compile command shown in the test script below, compilation proceeds normally and it even builds some of the SAPIs, but once it gets to phar, things go sideways:

Generating phar.php
Generating phar.phar
PEAR package PHP_Archive not installed: generated phar will require PHP's phar extension be enabled.
make: *** [ext/phar/phar.phar] Bus error: 10



Test script:
---------------
make distclean; ./buildconf && PATH=/opt/homebrew/opt/bison/bin:$PATH ./configure --with-iconv=/opt/homebrew/opt/libiconv && make -j10 YACC=/opt/homebrew/opt/bison/bin/bison

# The above shows another minor bug: I should not have to set YACC, 
# but the makefile sets it to just "bison" rather than the full path,
# which causes it to find the obsolete system bison in the path instead.

As requested, these values from the makefile:

PHP_PHARCMD_SETTINGS = -n -d 'open_basedir=' -d 'output_buffering=0' -d 
'memory_limit=-1' -d phar.readonly=0

PHP_PHARCMD_BANG = `$(top_srcdir)/build/shtool echo -n -- "$(INSTALL_ROOT)$(bindir)/$(program_prefix)php$(program_suffix)$(EXEEXT)";`

I suspect the build might be entirely borked, and the phar generation is just the first part that actually uses the produced binary.

Does running `sapi/cli/php -v` work? If so, does running `sapi/cli/php run-tests.php Zend -j8` produce any failures?

sapi/cli/php -v does work, but it does immediately get run over by the bus (error)  when running the test suite.  I can't convince gdb to install either, so there's not a lot that's debuggable.  Homebrew does build php successfully, and it appears it even applies a patch or two, so I'll work backwards from that.

In my Apple M1 machine, using the method mentioned in this link(https://qiita.com/shirai_suguru/items/894dc1e71cbc96f4a857) would fix this bug.

$ brew install pcre2
$ ./configure --with-external-pcre=$(brew --prefix pcre2)
$ make
$ make test

Note: the link is in Japanese. you may need to translate it to English.

The current error I get building on M2 is this:

Fatal error: Uncaught InvalidArgumentException: RegexIterator::__construct(): Allocation of JIT memory failed, PCRE JIT will be disabled. This is likely caused by security restrictions. Either grant PHP permission to allocate executable memory, or set pcre.jit=0 in /Users/kelunik/.php-build/release/ext/phar/phar.php:1145

This is caused by Apple's default protection on Apple Silicon chips, see https://developer.apple.com/documentation/apple-silicon/porting-just-in-time-compilers-to-apple-silicon

It's been fixed in https://github.com/zherczeg/sljit/pull/105, which is contained in libpcre2 10.40.

https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/32cceb75bf5e42bebbf4d12bab4369924f1d6885 updates php-src to libpcre2 10.40, but only for the 8.2+.

Thanks for the info I will try to figure it out for more.
