This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

This is being caused because of mis-use of mmap().  We are currently
relying on mmap to pad the end of our mmap'd file with zeros for
detection of EOF in the scanner and scanning ahead.  We specifically add
ZEND_MMAP_AHEAD to the len passed to mmap in zend_stream_fixup():

/*  *buf[size] is zeroed automatically by the kernel */
*buf = mmap(0, size + ZEND_MMAP_AHEAD, PROT_READ, MAP_PRIVATE,
fileno(file_handle->handle.fp), 0);
 
But AFAIK mmap does not support this usage of the len parameter, as
it's a limit rather than able to extend the mmap region.  This appears
to work under most cases as mmap will pad zeroes up to PAGESIZE.  This
error will occur anytime we use mmap in this way on a file that is not
ZEND_MMAP_AHEAD bytes less than PAGESIZE and therefore attempt to access
a byte over PAGESIZE.

It will be easy to fix the mmap calls, however this will break the re2c
scanner.  Originally for the EOF checks I was going to re-implement
YYFILL to malloc additional space for the scanner after EOF, this may be
an option to correct this.

Looks like something in the re2c stuff that's causing it to overread.

This script completely self-contained reproducing script. But as I 
mention before, I can't make it smaller because it break 
reproducibility.

Description:
------------
On particular file php always crashes with Bus Error.
I'm try split file to get only sensible data, but I can't. ANY changes

in it do predictable behavior and all works as expected. Even 
add/delete comment, any letter, space in any place...

$ php test.bus.error.php
Bus error

Its contain many external dependencies, but it is absolutely unneeded 
for reproducibility:
$ php -d"include_path=:::::" test.bus.error.php
Bus error

[pa...@x-www _SHARED_]$ ulimit -c unlimited
[pa...@x-www _SHARED_]$ php -d"include_path=/" test.bus.error.php
Bus error (core dumped)

This file is my working mess for test and sandboxing :), so, it is 
really not intended for any use outside and even any use except probes

and examples. But as I can't even change 1 letter in it, I place it as

is: http://ru.bir.ru/_temp/php-bugs/2/test.bus.error.php.gz
Coredump file also available for download: http://ru.bir.ru/_temp/php-
bugs/2/core.19581

Reproduce code:

Sorry, I can't do that smaller.
