Just to comment that this happens to me too. We have a bzr plugin which adds a pre-commit hook which runs all new and modified PHP files in the commit though php -l, as a basic sanity checker.
>From time to time php -l will segfault on a perfectly valid PHP file. Re-attempting usually succeeds. It gets most annoying when trying to do a large commit, since the greater number of files increases the chance of the segfault occurring, and can result in an irritating number of attempts being required in order for the commit to succeed. I've encountered the problem on a single-processor i386 machine running jaunty, and just now encountered it on an amd64 dual core machine running an up to date karmic system. The test case in the original bug report does reproduce the problem for me, but not every time. For each set of 50, I usually get 0-2 instances of the segfault happening. -- Segmentation fault when running any script https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/392521 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
