I have the same error on 5.2.10 with suhosin patch.
Linux 2.6.31-10-generic #30-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 8 12:32:38 UTC 2009
x86_64 GNU/Linux
The tested site was working perfectly on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS with untouched
PHP 5.2.4 (with suhosin patch). The behaviour however is not standard
and it depends if the page is first time visite

update/workaround . . . but scary . . .
someone on ##php tols me to restart apache, that when you get one of
those canary mismatch on efree() you get many until you restart apache.
I didnt pay attention at the beginning but finally tried it.
Its simply true, when you get those messages , restart apache and you
will see no more of them ( until the next apache overflow ? )

I also tried the code suggested :
<?php
$demo_user[]=(object)array("first" => 1);
$demo_user[]=(object)array("second" => 2);
$demo_user[]=(object)array("third" => 3);
echo "<pre>"; var_dump($demo_user); echo "</pre>";
?>
This doesnt trigger any error message here

Sorry for the noise - testing the assertion that CAPTCHAs are broken.
