This is done.
php5 and CGI and apache2 works fine again.
Apache2 with USE_PATH_INFO=true or auto works fine with "AcceptPathInfo on".

Session crashes on overlarge session objects have also been fixed. 
Anybody knows the number of how large such a session object may be? 
Reading an overlarge object leads to immediate crashes.

The most important remaining fatals are now:

1) ConvertOldMarkup()
    php crash on formatting the 2nd paragraph of OldTextFormattingRules,
    AnciennesR%E8glesDeFormatage, ...
A complicated anchored regex which crashes in the 2nd loop.
We really should check/sanify the allowed regexp's a bit, since admins 
and even users (InterWikiMap) can easily destroy them.

2) PageList memory exhaustion on large pagesets
    (e.g. PhpWikiDemo:en/AllPages)
This is probably due to WikiDB caching on simple pagelist iterations, 
which shouldn't be done.
