As the segmentation fault only appears sporadically, it is not that
easy to find out which code can cause it. But I will try my very best
and inform you if I know anything. Meanwhile I compiled PHP with
debugging support and got the following gdb output:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

That is a possibility, besides phpMyAdmin do you have another other
preferably much smaller scripts that could be used to replicate the
crash?

After having compiled PHP about a hundred times, I found out that using
--enable-zend-multibyte causes the segmentation fault. Is the Zend
Multibyte Support thread safe?

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Your phpinfo() does not reflect the configure line you have used. So it
does not appear you are using PHP you've compiled.

If you are only using PHP + MySQL then php should be thread safe,
however I still recommend to explicitly enable
--enable-experimental-zts

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Looking at your configure script line 5723 enable_experimental_zts is
automatically activated if Apache does not use the prefork MPM (which
is the case). Besides, a phpinfo() says that thread safety has been
activated. 

Concerning the extensions, I already wrote _only_ the MySQL extension
is loaded, no gd/ttf extension.

So everything should be thread safe now, should'n it?

You are using threaded environment, however you did not use the
--enable-experimental-zts flag which enables thread safety and you are
using extensions such as gd/tff that are know to be not thread safe.
Other extensions may be using non-thread-safe libraries as well.
The result is a random memory corruption that causes the crash you are
seeing.
