Which should be fine since the PHP function is there and just maps to
malloc/free anyway. The problem on a reload is that PHP gets unloaded so
any other module that uses pcre while PHP is unloaded will crash. So I
think the specific bug we are talking about is very much related to an
Apache restart. Of course, the way it is written, it is silly for it to
use the pemalloc wrapper.
