Before the segfault does it actually run more quickly without phpa then? :-) 
If so then enable shm logging and see if the cache is flushing pages. The 
cache could be too small.

When Jamie's produced the FreeBSD release for 1.2dev then I'll put that up 
and I'd recommend trying that.

Certainly possible, but my own code uses references heavily too and it never 
crashes. If you're not using 4.0.7 then I'd recommend switching to that as 
4.0.6 has some memory bugs that could also be related.

Would certainly be helpful if you can, but I'd be inclined to hold off until 
Jamies had time to build 1.2dev and let me have that. One other thing you 
could do is set the (undocumented) phpa.tweaks setting to 'off' in php.ini

Cheers
Nick
