The fact that this bug can lead to a denial-of-service in PHP is
sufficient to warrant a CVE for PHP, but nothing else (I think).  If it
can lead to a dos in other apps, then each should get their own CVE
(again in my opinion).

I think so too but in any case it would rock if I could get a CVE #
asap, we are going to release 5.2.17/5.3.5 tomorrow (packaging now).

Anyone?
