I'm running php 5.2.5 NTS with APC 3.1.0-dev. It works, but not without some
issues, like occasionally get a FastCGI process crashing which I suspect is
APC.

More worringly, have a tiny application which consistantly executes the
wrong page, when APC is enabled. 

The index.php opens a frameset, with the left frame requesting browser.php,
but instead the output of index.php is sent. 
Disable APC and the problem goes away.

Haven't been enable to write a failing test case to report it.
