[php-maint] Bug#719982: Bug#719982: php5: 2years old fixed bug, went bad again

[Ondřej Surý]

Hi,

the bug you are commenting on is unrelated to session clean resources
exhaustion.

I did invent the solution to the fuser problem too deep in the wheezy
development cycle, so it didn't get merged into wheezy. I'll try to
speak with our release team if it could be pushed through s-p-u.

Meanwhile please try the cron script and sessionclean script from
testing/sid, that should fix your problem as it doesn't consume that
much resources as the wheezy cron.

Ondrej
