https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68057

is a regression introduced in PHP 5.6.
So code which still worked with PHP 5.5 breaks in 5.6.

The big issue is here, that the fix for this bug requires ABI breakage. 
(changing an unsigned short into a zend_uint)

I know that ABI compatibility is a pretty serious issue here, but it also means 
that some perfectly valid PHP 5.5 code which is supposed to still work on 5.6 
will silently break.
So, is it worth to break ABI or does it have to wait for 5.7 or the next major?
