Greetings all,

Quick background:

I've tried various permutations of

* FreeBSD 6.1
* cURL versions 7.15.3, 7.15.5, 7.16.2
* PHP versions 4.4.4, 4.4.6, 4-STABLE-200704160230, 5.1.6
* OpenSSL versions 0.9.8b, 0.9.8d, 0.9.8e.

Clean builds from source, ldd indicates that there's no library confusion, et
cetera.

The problem:

When PHP invokes cURL on an HTTPS URL, the result is

         php in free(): error: chunk is already free
         Abort trap: 6

I'm aware of the curl-and-php mailing list. However, it appears the problem
may be in libcurl as opposed to the PHP/CURL binding. I built libcurl and PHP
with debugging symbols and found that the trap occurs in
cURL's

         lib/ssluse.c:Curl_ossl_close()

when

         SSL_free (connssl->handle);
         /* circa line 700 +/- 20 (depending on cURL version) */

is invoked. I'm not terribly familiar with cURL or OpenSSL guts, so that's as
far as I've taken it.

Any suggestions?

TIA,
Eddy
