freebsd stable - Jun 2008 - apachectl gracefult causes Signal 11 crash after 6.3 to 7.0 upgrade [SOLVED]

It seems a php-extensions bug.
If you comment the mhash.so in /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini as:

;entension=mhash.so

all works fine and you don't get anymore httpd crash (signal 11) if you
use 'apachectl graceful'.

Maybe will be a good idea to open PR for this?

I hope it helps someone.... (I'm very surprised that this isn't a
documented bug in 7.0 yet)

Many people have reported that the *order* of the extensions in
extensions.ini has adverse (positive) effects on PHP segfaults on
FreeBSD.

I myself haven't ever run into extension ordering issues like those
described (and we've done hosting for years), but I don't doubt those
who have experienced such.

It might make more sense to follow up with php.....

Just b/c it happens in 7.x and not 6.x doesn't mean its a FreeBSD issue.
