Wait, I can test everything, but which method should I use (to disable
Zend Memory Manager)? The crashes occur even in 5.3-latest, so please
tell me what should I *exactly* do with this snapshot.

Description:
------------
Okay, so generally the PHP website and docs tell me to use following
methods to disable Zend Memory Manager:
Set env var USE_ZEND_ALLOC=0 (works only for CLI)
Compile PHP with --disable-zend-memory-manager or --enable-malloc-mm
(these options do not get recognized; I know the first one has been
removed, and the second one added - but why doesn't it work?)
How do I test whether it works or not? phpinfo has a position called
"Zend Memory Manager", which can be either enabled or disabled. If I try
to disable it and it still says "enabled" I suppose the method doesn't
work.
Last but not least, why would I want to disable the memory manager? I
get horrible crashes with it, I (and not only I) reported it, the bug
got closed as a dupe, but the "original" bug was also closed with no
feedback etc. And while I believe in fixing the bug itself, it would be
nice to have a workaround.
