[Mediawiki-l] Wiki became unavailable--eAccelerator 0.9.5 incompatible with PHP 5.2.x

[Bill Egnatoff]

Thanks to Brion Vibber, I learned that
eAccelerator 0.9.5 is incompatible with PHP 5.2.1.
(see https://www.eaccelerator.net/ticket/204 )
Turned it off by putting these lines in .htaccess:
php_flag eaccelerator.enable 0
php_flag eaccelerator.optimizer 0
(see http://eaccelerator.net/wiki/Faq Usage)
