It's been almost two weeks and I am happy to report, that there has been no crashes on 7.2.0
RC2. So the fix works.

I've just updated our server to 7.2.0 RC2. This version should have the problem fixed, as I
understand, correct? Will let you know if it helped.

My mistake, I got hung up on the wrong version. I'll try the 7.2 release.

when someone tells you "It is fixed in 7.2" your response "It's not fixed.
I've have 7.1.8" is just nonsense (even if we ignore that 7.1.8 is *not* the current
bugfix release because PHP 7.1.9 built: Aug 31 2017 15:38:22)

@jamwhitl please fetch any PHP 7.2 pre here http://windows.php.net/qa/ , or any latest 7.2 snapshot.
Mentioned above, but just to be clear - this fix is not present and won't be in PHP 7.1 and
lower.

Thanks.

It's not fixed.  I've have 7.1.8 on two development servers and a production sever.  The
problem is random with, anywhere from 2 hours to a week after apache is restarted. Extensive testing
has indicated the problem is with other superglobals like $_POST and $_SESSION as well.  Restating
Apache always resolves it, but that's not an acceptable solution in a production environment. 
I think this bug should be reopened, or at least a new one opened.
