Everything works fine but sometimes eZPublish 3.0 cause problems to PHP

here is what I saw in my error_log file :

[notice] child pid ????? exit signal Segmentation Fault (11)

Thank you

If it helps, the problem seems to be related to the session_start() function in PHP...

I found this on php.net website :

Note:
------------------
For those of you OOP people, when creating your session management class, note that you cannot call session_start() from within a method of the object. It will not work properly unless you add at the end of every link the session id to be passed.

i'm having the exact same trouble, also with php 4.1.2. it gets even weirder if you try to repeat this error with different browsers for an ez user site; mozilla (&netscape) seem to keep requesting new child processes 'till they receive a living one, where IE & lynx OTOH throw an error at the user ('This page can not be displayed', or something).

it might have something to do with what Jo Henrik Endrerud is saying in 'Re: PHP 4.1 or PHP 4.2.3 required -- conflicting documentation -- help?' (http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/forum/install_configuration/php_41_or_php_423_required_conflicting_documentation_help#msg26393). but that's just a wild guess.
