Hello,

Bisecting lead to the following commit:

$ git bisect visualize
commit 4a66490bdecd5e4ec2b8213e89a6e40aaa18975e
Author: Christian Weiske <cweiske at cweiske.de>
Date:   Mon Feb 9 23:26:33 2015 +0100

    Fix for PHP 7: Replace "&new" with "new" (new-by-reference)

I've attached the used bissect script.

Disclamier, I'm still using php 5.6.
