The following generates a segfault on my system:
function dotest()
{
$link = mysql_connect("localhost","test","test");
mysql_select_db("test");
mysql_query("CREATE TABLE config (num smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL
auto_increment, conf varchar(20) NOT NULL default '')");
mysql_query("INSERT INTO config (conf,type) VALUES('Test1','33')");
$result = mysql_query("SELECT conf,value FROM config");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result))
{
global ${$row[0]};
${$row[0]} = $row[1];
}
mysql_free_result($result);
}
dotest();
echo "Test: $test<br>\n";

Oops...the expected and actual result fields are switched.

Description:
------------
The below code does not store the value "55" in the variable "test" as
it should, and did in PHP 5.0.5. Leaving out the global declaration
allows the output to display properly. I have also had segmentation
faults caused by similar routines, but have been unable to reproduce
this outside of the full program.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$x = array("test", "55");
global ${$x[0]};
${$x[0]} = $x[1];
echo "Test: $test<br>\n";;
Expected result:
----------------
Displays:
Test:
Actual result:
--------------
Should display:
Test: 55
