Obviously a HAVE_LIBXMLRPC is missing (config.m4), and should be used to select to proper free /
efree method for data allocated by the lib.

Thanks Ondrej, everything works for me now as I commented also on https://github.com/oerdnj/deb.sury.org/issues/724
Nikic, we are gradually moving away from xmlrpc in Moodle but there is still some functionality that
depends on it, unfortunately.

Maybe don't revert is as whole, but just wrap the free vs efree in ext/xmlrpc/xmlrpc-epi-php.c
into #if XMLRPC_MODULE_TYPE == builtin/external ?

Thanks, that's considerate. I know it isn't easy with the distro packagers :).

Right, https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/3a0872d08fc71d9bb9ec3d431260f838725d3b8d
needs to be reverted. I had assumed libxmlrpc is abandonware, but seemingly it isn't.
