Bugs in zend.c and zend_compile.c in ZTS mode

Hello all, I have recently switched to PHP 5.1, and have been encountering crashes during shutdown. I have tried delving into the PHP code to locate the source of the problems, and have discovered two issues, both of which only happen when compiled with ZTS enabled. The first is very probably a bug. In zend_compile.c, in the zend_initialize_class_data function, inside the #ifdef ZTS block, the following line can be found: ce->static_members = (HashTable*)n; This casts an int variable, which denotes an index of the static_members array, to a pointer. I assume what was meant is: ce->static_members = (HashTable*) (CG(static_members)[n]); In addition, support for runtime declaration (handled by the if block) is broken, as it will not work when CG(static_members) is NULL and we're trying to add the first member, so the if block should be followed by an else block similar to this one. else if (!CG(static_members)) { // n is probably 0 at this point CG(last_static_member) = n+1; CG(static_members) = (HashTable**)calloc(n+1, sizeof(HashTable*)); } If needed, I can provide a patch for this issue. The second issue _may_ be a bug, but I'm not familiar enough with the Zend Engine internals to be certain. In zend.c, the zend_post_startup function unlinks the global (r/o) copies of several tables, and creates fresh r/w copies for the startup threads. From looking at the code, it would seem that the unlinking of the persistent_list is NOT done cleanly: The persistent list of the running thread is destroyed and reinitialized (by executor_globals_ctor), and this is what the global_persistent_list variable points to. In other words, the global persistent list is shared with the startup thread. Again, in this case it _feels_ wrong, but this may also be what was intended. I hope I've managed to make sense, and I'd appreciate any feedback on this.
