There are several bug reports related to PCRE causing crashes. From a
comment in Freshmeat:

    In short: with some match patterns and data from 1000
    bytes pcre causes php (and probably others) to crash.
    The problem seems to be that "PCRE uses recursion to
    handle subpatterns and indefinite repetition"
    (from PHP bug #24460).
