Any other ideas?  This problem is kind of a blocker for me right now...
 I still don't understand why it works fine inside valgrind, but it
segfaults on its own and inside gdb.  I know it's segfaulting because
of the message "Cannot access memory at address 0x55a0bfe0", so the for
loop checking vals[i] obviously fails.  But what steps can I take to
debug this further?

It could be a problem in openldap, since the line in php's ldap.c just
before it calls the openldap function 'ldap_count_values' is
ldap_get_values(), which is what is returning the memory address of
0x55a0bfe0.  But if it were in fact a problem with openldap, would the
cli ldapsearch fail as well?

I've tried, but the program doesn't segfault, so it exits normally. 
I'm not very experienced with gdb, so I'm not sure how to give it a
breakpoint of ldap_count_values (I tried 'break ldap_count_values' and
'break ldap_count_values()', and it doesn't break).

It does still return the information as expected.

Is it possible to perform the same actions using ldapsearch utility in
console?

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The memory address is the same.  Can't access memory?  It seems like
its a problem in php's ldap_get_entries still (or further up the stack)
because ldap_count_entries(), which calls the same function, works fine
and returns '1'.

And what is in vals[0] ?
(gdb) p vals[0]

I do still get the segfault.  This is the output from gdb:

(gdb) set args -e test.php
(gdb) run
Starting program: /root/php-5.1.6/sapi/cli/php -e test.php
done searching
Count: 1 entries

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00002b92baa9a0ab in ldap_count_values (vals=0x55a07f90) at
getvalues.c:153
153             for ( i = 0; vals[i] != NULL; i++ )
(gdb) f 0
#0  0x00002b92baa9a0ab in ldap_count_values (vals=0x55a07f90) at

(gdb) p vals
$1 = (char **) 0x55a07f90
(gdb) p i
$2 = 0

If I'm understanding that correctly, it means the segfault is occuring
on the first iteration of the ldap_count_values() for loop.  The first
thing I notice is that 'vals' is a 32-bit pointer. Would that have any
effect on the problem, considering this is a 64-bit system?  Should I
have 32-bit emulation libraries installed for this?   The only reason I
haven't installed the libraries so far is because none of the other
packages I've installed have specifically said that they are necessary.
