I would say that 100.000 recursions is too much. When I made my patch it was
segfaulting with such value. 50.000 is a much safer choice (at least on my
gentoo box, 8 MB of stack).

I made a patch (against HEAD currently only) that makes it possible to set
runtime limits on backtracking and recursion. It also implements
preg_last_error() that lets users check whether there was an execution
error (such as limit exceeded or bad UTF-8 or whatever).
Ilia, do you think it might make it into 5.1.3?
