Actually, zval_ptr_dtor calls zval_dtor, which does much more EG(...) games than just EG(uninitialized_zval_ptr). So I guess calling zval_ptr_dtor before init_executor is unwise indeed...
    yep - but can we simply move init_executor a bit "up"?

It's called per-request in zend_activate. I think some of the INI stuff is called during module startup (when the thread is started). I'm not sure this can be easily fixed. We might need to initialize it in the EG ctor(). Andi
