[Bug 198103] [NEW] php5-5.2.1-0ubuntu1.5 session handling segfaults

[Andy Dustman]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: php5

This is closely related to bug #173043. php5-5.2.1-0ubuntu1.5 on amd64
feisty (or more specifically, tested with libapache2-mod-php5) causes
Apache to segfault under non-obvious conditions when starting new
sessions. By this I mean, it seems to happen consistently for a long
time, and then it may start to work consistently for awhile. To test
whether this was the same problem as #173043, I got the feisty source
package for php5, applied the following patch, built debs, and installed
them. This seems to fix the problem; at least I have not seen it fail
yet.
