 Replying to [comment:1 sivel]:
 > The problem is with the timezone_identifiers_list function.  I installed
 PHP 5.3 from the dotdeb repository and found that it caused a seg fault.
 I talked to some people from ##php and found that it is not a problem with
 the source distribution but with dotdeb's packaging and possibly with the
 debian/ubuntu time zone database.

 Since I am using this source distro and platform. Are there any steps I
 could possibly take to fix it. How was it that you determined it to be a
 seg fault?
