Apache crashed when derived class had no constructor [PHP]

           Summary: Apache crashed when derived class had no constructor
                    [PHP]
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: 1.3.27
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 9x
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: Other
         Component: Other mods
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: a.eibach@gmx.net


I've got a PHP script here with a very complex class structure.
To narrow down the bug, I've reduced this structure to a much simpler one and 
removed all that database-specific crap.

It was my mistake. I had changed the class name to some other one, but 
forgotten to rename the constructor inside as well. As, unlike in C++, 
constructors are treated equally to functions in PHP, PHP "thinks" that this 
constructor is just another function.
Since I suspect it's a problem with Apache's PHP module (I'm going the *.DLL 
way), I set Component to 'Other mods'.

- Windows 98 SE
- PHP 4.3.1
- Apache 1.3.27
