Status: Wont fix
Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Operating System: win2k apache2
PHP Version: 4.3.2
New Comment:
According to zend.h, the refcount for zvals is an unsigned short, which
would roll over to zero on the 65536th increment, causing
shutdown_memory_manager to free the zval while references to it still
remain.
I'm guessing it'd be too costly to check every refcount increment.

That breaks - don't do it :)
It won't be fixed in 4.x; PHP 5 will (and does) handle it though.

<?php
$times = 65536; // 65535 works fine
$t = array(1);
for ($i = 0; $i < $times; $i ++)
{
$a[] = &$t;
}
?>
crash
