New Comment:
Thanks staying on this guys. Reading the linked ticket:
"Simply removing (and thus disabling file) /usr/share/misc/magic.mgc "fixes" issues
with Mediawiki"
That could be a plausible explanation why PHP could fail, not sure about crash. As
PHP uses a compiled in magic file which is strongly recommended to use (so no
external file loading). However that explanation wouldn't exactly match with what
"r dot biegel at gmx dot at" told earlier
"PHP Versions 5.3.25, 5.4.13, 5.4.14, 5.4.15 and 5.5.0_rc2 all segfault for me."
where by 5.3 didn't become any libmagic upgrades since long. That fact makes me
really confused, as that would mean even without upgrade the constellation of
apache svn module and php would cause crash. 5.3 has libmagic 5.11 or older if i
don't err.
And this is anyway something i can't reproduce compiling all the stuff manually.
@r.biegel - if downgrading libmagic on your gentoo system works, i would close this
ticket with the status "mystic" :)
Thanks

Downgrading sys-apps/file to version 5.11 solved the issue for me.

I have the same issue on two different systems with two different applications (ownCloud and
Roundcubemail).
Disabling (removing -D SVN) the svn module fixes the problem...
Any news on that issue?

USE=nss doesn't work for me. Seems to be another problem, sorry.

Someone posting on this problem on the Gentoo forums
(https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7260284.html) said that they fixed this (or a similar
problem) by adding USE=nss for apr-utils.

No change of behaviour with php 5.4.16 and 5.5.0_rc3.
