I was just thinking of adding a couple of INI settings that scripts can
use to set match and match recursion limits.

regarding the last bug, there are several ways to fix it.
the PCRE's match() function is recursive and it consumes more than 100
bytes per call and the current recursion limit is 10 Millions. That
leaves us with 1 GB of stack that can be consumed. The problem is that
PHP will segfault after reaching the per-process stack limit.
My Gentoo box has a limit of 8 MBs of stack per process. Solaris too.
FreeBSD increases that to 64 MBs.
So, we need to tune the MATCH_LIMIT and MATCH_LIMIT_RECURSION
parameters to more realistic limits. we can force a hard limit that is
more realistic with nowadays stack limits, add a configure option,
estimate the max recursion depth at runtime (this can be passed as a
parameter to the function), etc...
