What's broken with php5 and 10.5.5 ... ?

I've just set up php5, mysql5 and apache2 on a brand new iMac with 
10.5.5, and I'm getting a lot of errors in the Apache log

The process has forked and you cannot use this CoreFoundation 
functionality safely. You MUST exec().
Break on 
__THE_PROCESS_HAS_FORKED_AND_YOU_CANNOT_USE_THIS_COREFOUNDATION_FUNCTIONALITY___YOU_MUST_EXEC__() 
to debug.

Trace/BPT trap (5)
[Mon Oct 13 10:26:45 2008] [notice] child pid 198 exit signal 
Trace/BPT trap (5)


It only happens on some of my webpages, perhaps implicating Freetype 
or some other font drawing part of php5.

sudo port installed
   apache2 @2.2.9_1+darwin_9 (active)
   mysql5 @5.0.67_1+server (active)
   php5 @5.2.6_1+apache2+macosx+mysql5 (active)

+ all their dependencies including
   freetype @2.3.7_1 (active)
   gd2 @2.0.35_1 (active)
   gettext @0.17_3 (active)



This isn't a problem on 10.4.11 with the same ports running on a G4 laptop.
