You mean that they think that it doesn't make sense to fix PHP in cases where it's totally broken? I think that's totally irresponsible behavior. Thousands of people still use PHP 4 for good reasons. If you look correctly through the bug database you'll find atleast 10 bugs related to strange segfaults and some have been confirmed to be related to references that crash PHP. I think we should definitely put this in a PHP release, although the patch doesn't fix all segfaults yet.
