PHP Bug Type:     SQLite related
Bug description:  better fix for CVE-2007-1887-1888/MOPB-41

Description:
------------
from what i understand, your fix for the above mentioned vulnerabilities
was to patch the bundled sqlite libraries to handle certain parameters that
might be null pointers.   however, for distributions where php is built
against external sqlite packages, this  has no effect and the resulting
packages are still vulnerable unless the sqlite packages are independantly
patched.

in the debian php packages, we've patched the php_sqlite module to check
for the null pointers outside of the call to the sqlite functions, thus not
requiring a patch or change in the behaviour of the sqlite libraries.

anyway, if you want to continue keeping a patched bundled version of
sqlite, that's fine, but i thought i'd share this.
