 New Comment:

when I used the function number_format(-2000, 2768) in php script and
invoke that script using cli php (in version 5.3.8), php interpreter is
getting into infinite loop of modf() and memmov() functions. It is
working fine if I use the the second argument of number_format()
function is less than 305. Platform  is RedHat Enterprise Linux
Advanced Server3.0

sprintf under win32 can crash when the format width is too large.
Changing the emalloc + sprintf to spprintf highlights a problem in our
spprintf implementation; it only returns a string of 80 chars.
This length causes the reslen calculation to produce a negative number
and thus emalloc to fail.

When the following line is run:

echo number_format(2, 2678);

The following error appears in the Apache error log:

FATAL:  emalloc():  Unable to allocate -1112 bytes

-259 and -123 have also appeared.
Clearly I accidentally used number_format in the reverse
direction that I meant to.  However, it seems like whatever is
requesting memory for number_format is experiencing integer overflow. 
That doesn't seem right.
