Description
Description
PHP 8.1.0 + 8.1.1 produces segfault, randomly. Downgrading to 8.0 solves the issue.

Research direction
Begin with the core-dump trace at Zend/zend_vm_execute.h:10137, specifically ZEND_NEW_SPEC_CONST_UNUSED_HANDLER, and compare the PHP 8.1.0 and 8.1.1 JIT behavior against PHP 8.0. The report provides no reproducer beyond an intermittent php-fpm crash, so done requires isolating a reproducible failure and verifying the fix against it.
