Ulf said that more than two years ago, and nothing has happened since. I'll be merging this
into 7 unless somebody beats me.

For me, Derick's patch is all right to get merged against 5.5
I PR'ed it at https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/1104
Like ulf says, it will break bad codes reusing the mysqli resource as an object (because we now NULL
it, so it's not an object anymore), but the mysqli resource was anyway in a bad state, so for
me this is clearly a fix that could get merged.

This Problem still exists in different PHP-Versions.
I got it in 5.5.9 and 5.6.3 with XAMPP on Windows 7.
Please fix this bug!
And here a little workaround for all developer who want to use xDebug now.
function free_result_fix(&$rs){
$out = mysqli_free_result($rs);
$rs = null;
return $out;
}
Replace every mysqli_free_result with the free_result_fix and xDebug will work :-)

Pretty please can someone take a look at this? It's still making it almost impossible to
xdebug anything that involves MySQLi.

Please fix this bug as soon as possible, otherwise debugging is painful with XDebug when fighting
with MYSQLi.

I'm experiencing this problem as well, both in 5.4 and 5.5, and it's very problematic. It
makes it impossible for me to upgrade past 5.3. Our application has a custom error handler which
throws an exception if error is below the reporting level. I an unable to step over the code after a
breakpoint. The error handler is triggered and I am booted to the error page after an uncaught
exception.
