Description:
------------
Installed ibm.csdk.4.50.FC3.ARMV8, downloaded PDO_INFORMIX and compiled. Running make test reports segemenation fault, and "BORK Termsig=11 [tests/fvt_001.phpt] reason: invalid output from SKIPIF
BORK Termsig=11 [tests/fvt_002.phpt] reason: invalid output from SKIPIF".

Attempting to use the PHP after enabling the extension (eg php -v or php -i) just causes segmentation fault. Using gdb outputs...

Iust want to note that if I set up ODBC against the installed informix it works fine (use 'isql' to query the server works). So I do not think the issue is with my Informix install. 

I also tried on Fedora 34 on arm with their stock php 7.4 install and I get the same results (backtrace is almost identical).

Assuming you have PDO_INFORMIX 1.3.4 from PECL, please have a look
at pdo_informix.c.  Line 45-51 is:

zend_function_entry pdo_informix_functions[] =
{
//	PHP_FE(confirm_pdo_informix_compiled, NULL)	/* For testing, remove later. */
//	{
//		NULL, NULL, NULL
//	}	/* Must be the last line in pdo_informix_functions[] */
};

but should probably be:

zend_function_entry pdo_informix_functions[] =
{
    PHP_FE_END
};

Would that solve the issue?

I would submit a PR, but I don't know where the sources are
hosted.  The GH repo[1] appears to be abandoned for years.

That worked!

Thanks so much for the help, I'll see if I can get in touch with the maintainers to release an update.
