[php-maint] Bug#476419: When i use the intern php-function preg_replace with a regex on a special text, i get a segmentation fault

[Kai Szymanski]

Package: php5-cli
Version: 5.2.0-8+etch10
Severity: critical

Hi!

If write a simple script:

<?
$file = implode("",file($argv[1]));
echo "== Original: $file\n";
echo "== Replaced: ".preg_replace($argv[2],$argv[3],$file)."\n";
?>

and run it with

	php pregReplacetest.php "/\'{1,}(([^'])+)\'{1,}/ie" "TEST" testfile.txt

on a textfile i get a segmentation fault. I can send the File testfile.txt
to you if needed!

Best regards,
  Kai.
