PHP-FPM segfault in OPcache with PHP 8.4.10

Description

Our PHP-FPM crashes at seemingly random moments with an error in OPcache. I am unable to reproduce this locally but have made coredumps on production. They seem to result in 2 distinct backtraces that seem to point to the same error:

[New LWP 46774]

I am out of my league in debugging this myself, and there's little I can change to the setup to narrow it down. Hopefully the backtraces help. If there's any additional context or hint of reproduction steps I can try please let me know.

Inizia con i coredump di PHP 8.4.10 e i frame di OPcache attorno a zend_file_cache_script_store() e persistent_compile_file(); il secondo trace include anche tideways_hooks_perform_autoload() da tideways.so. Usa i backtrace GDB disponibili per restringere il percorso OPcache che fallisce e cercare un caso riproducibile. Il lavoro è concluso quando è stata confermata la causa, con un test di regressione o un fix documentato.
