this is not correct (in general :) - there are segfaults in experimental
stuff that do not imply exploits, are no security risk and are just a
new/unused feature that does not work as expected. it IS ok to release with
such a segfault. an example:

bbonev <email protected>:~$ echo "<? \$a=1 ?>" | php -a
Interactive mode enabled

X-Powered-By: PHP/4.0.5RC6
Content-type: text/html

Segmentation fault

see bug id 8621

i think commonsense shall be used to judge what is showstopper and what is
not :)
this one definitely is not
