note 23070 added to function.stripslashes

This function has been used in many of my scripts for over a year. After the security warning a few weeks ago, I immediately install Apache 1.3.26 and PHP 4.2.1 and now this function is causing my apache child processes to crash. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm using it in a very basic manner: $company_name = stripslashes($company_name); -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stripslashes.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+23070 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+23070 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+23070
