So this issue is apparently fixed thanks to 
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61165 (which is actually a dupe of 60701 all 
along) ?

5.3.10 fixed the attached testcase, a more simple test now fails.

<?php

class A {
        public $a;
        public function __toString()
        {
                $this->a = $this;
                return 'waa?';
        }
}

$a = new A;
echo trim($a);
echo trim($a->a);

Results:
5.3.0 - 5.3.9   waa?1
5.3.10 waa? Warning: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, unknown given in 
/home/deployer/public_html/php/tmp/ba8096acaf18c52bc12e38619634c25b on line 14
5.4.0 Segmentationfault

OK, I think I know what may be going on here. What you're getting as $this in 
toString() is not a real $object but a copy what was generated by 
SEPARATE_ZVAL_IF_NOT_REF() in parse_arg_object_to_string(). If you save this 
copy, there might be trouble since it'd be destroyed by writeobj and later 
cleanup of the function arguments. However, the patch proposed doesn't seem to 
solve the problem completely since $this->test variable is still corrupted in 
this scenario...

I looked more into the code, and as far as I can see, the case where readobj == 
writeobj comes from parse_arg_object_to_string() - but there it is preceeded by 
SEPARATE_ZVAL_IF_NOT_REF(arg); so I don't see how you can get refcount > 1 
there 
unless you have IS_REF. Something else is going on there...

I'm not sure I understand the patch, especially this part: 

                                        if (readobj == writeobj) {
+                                               if (Z_REFCOUNT_P(readobj) <= 1) 
{
+                                                       INIT_PZVAL(writeobj);
+                                               }
                                                zval_dtor(readobj);

It looks like you initializing the object and then immediately calling dtor on 
it (since readobj == writeobj). Could you explain why and what you are trying 
to 
do there?
