 Bug Type:         PostgreSQL related
 Operating System: FreeBSD/amd64
 PHP Version:      5.2.5
 New Comment:

The original problem may, indeed, be a problem with PostgreSQL
back-end, but the dropping of bits by the list-API is gratuitous. There
is no need for it to truncate to int, because internally it stores ulong
values anyway...

It may make sense to keep the 5_2 branch binary-compatible (even though
the compatibility would only be broken on 64-bit platforms), but going
forward the API should change...

Come to think of it, I am not sure, the ABI would break even on 64-bit
platforms, as you'd be widening (rather than narrowing) the acceptable
values.

The fact that ext/pgsql uses ZE API in wrong way, doesn't mean that we
should fix the API. It is especially impossible in PHP_5_2 branch,
because it'll break binary compatibility.

I would suggest fix the bug in ext/pgsql by using other data
structures.

Description:
------------
The "id" variable in the zend_list family of functions should be ulong
(or uintptr_t, as pointers are often stored there). It already is ulong
in the underlying "workhorse" function zend_hash_index_find.

At least one spot -- in in pgsql.c -- makes an id from a pointer, which
leads to nasty occasional errors and httpd-/crashes/ on 64-bit
platforms.

Please, find the patch on
