@nikic why dual_it can not be GCed like any other object and is this something than can be fixed?
https://3v4l.org/AL2Hr the issue seems to be present even if
the callback is static but the (outer) Iterator is linked with any object

Still leaks, even in PHP 7. dual_it doesn't implement GC handling.

Description:
------------
GC fails to resolve the circular reference if object A retains a reference to a
callback in object B and object B retains a reference to object A. Both objects
leak.
Native PHP stuff like SPL iterators with callbacks and Stream callbacks are also
vulnerable to this problem.
This does not apply to userland PHP objects (i.e. objects of classes that were
defined in PHP scripts by a user).
I provided a test script with a number of tests, including SPL iterators with
callbacks, Stream callbacks, as well as 3rd-party extensions like pecl-event,
pecl-ev, pecl-libevent, pecl-eio.
Test script:

Expected result:
----------------
==== NULL ====
==== GC ====
Obj::__destruct
==== THE END ====
or
==== NULL ====
Obj::__destruct
==== GC ====
==== THE END ====
Actual result:
--------------
==== NULL ====
==== GC ====
==== THE END ====
Obj::__destruct
