The only warning that the GET_ZVAL_PTR can trigger is an undefined variable in which case the return value will be an uninited zval, which will always use the last error branch. What I did notice though is that this commit just fixes one out of very many cases where something like this or something similar could occur. E.g. just a few lines above it the same problem exists: http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_TRUNK/Zend/zend_vm_def.h#2432 So if you change the test code from $undefinedObject->$definedMethod() to $definedObject->$undefinedMethod() or $undefinedObject->$undefinedMethod() it will still fail. A few lines higher FETCH_CLASS has the same problem ( http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_TRUNK/Zend/zend_vm_def.h#2398). Going down a bit INIT_STATIC_METHOD_CALL has this too: http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_TRUNK/Zend/zend_vm_def.h#2548. INIT_FCALL_BY_NAME also has this: http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_TRUNK/Zend/zend_vm_def.h#2753 So you can trigger it with just $undefined() too. Again the same thing in THROW: http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_TRUNK/Zend/zend_vm_def.h#2963 (throw $undefined;). I could continue this list, but I think you get the point ^^ This issue exists pretty much everywhere where a ZVAL_PTR fetch is followed by some error condition that can happen when the zval is NULL. And we have a *lot* of those. So I'm not sure that it really makes sense to fix one of those cases and leave 50 others intact. Either this should be fixed generically (e.g. on the side of GET_ZVAL_PTR, though that might incur a performance penalty) or should be just left alone. Thanks, Nikita
