Description Joe Orton 2006-09-18 10:38:41 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #205714 +++

Description of problem:

Not sure whether to file this under PHP or Apache. We're having some annoying
PHP segfaults which we think we've narrowed down to a problem with the
metaphone() function. I've attached a simple test example that shows an example
of this. I can provide a backtrace, corefile (not sure if that will be helpful
without our exact PHP binary) or other info from the core file if it's helpful.

Switching to soundex() seems to resolve the problem.

It's not 100% of the time, but semi-reliably causes a crash.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
httpd-2.0.46-57.ent
php-4.4.4-07pg.33.ent
php-mysql-4.4.4-07pg.33.ent
