Comment (by ddenev):

 I can confirm that the provided patch DOES indeed solve the crashes.

 I enabled debug mode with XDebug and set a breakpoint after the return
 statement to check if it will be hit. I did testing for half a day and the
 breakpoint was never hit, so it looks promising.

 What would be the scenarios in which
 {{{#!php
 if ( false === strpos( $path, '://' ) )
 }}}
 would return true and then we will have the crashes again?
