For users with the same trouble
There is a workaround from "perske at munster dot de"

_______________________________________________________

intval() has to be used on every directory access functions as:

fopen("ssh2.sftp://".intval($sftp)."/./", 'r');
scandir('ssh2.sftp://' . intval($sftp) . "/dir/");

Also worth mentioning that setting $sftp = intval($sftp) in advance won't work.

This works fine here.

Assigning to all packagers collectively, since there is no registered maintainer for this package.

patched & tested the given diff for mga6.
before patch, the following script segfaulted:

<?php
$ssh2 = ssh2_connect('localhost', 22);
if (!ssh2_auth_password($ssh2, 'USER','PASSWORD')) {
  echo("auth error\n");
  exit();
}
$sftp = ssh2_sftp($ssh2);
$te='ssh2.sftp://'.$sftp.'/tmp/';
echo('te='.$te."\n");

echo("before scandir!\n");
$files = scandir($te,SCANDIR_SORT_ASCENDING );
echo("after scandir!\n");

if ($files===false)
  echo("scandir error\n");
else
  echo("scandir success\n");

I have uploaded a patched package for Mageia 5 + 6.

You can test this by using the following script (changing Host, Port, Username, Password):
<?php
$ssh2 = ssh2_connect('localhost', 22);
if (!ssh2_auth_password($ssh2, 'USER','PASSWORD')) {
  echo("auth error\n");
  exit();
}
$sftp = ssh2_sftp($ssh2);
$te='ssh2.sftp://'.$sftp.'/tmp/';
echo('te='.$te."\n");

echo("before scandir!\n");
$files = scandir($te,SCANDIR_SORT_ASCENDING );
echo("after scandir!\n");

if ($files===false)
  echo("scandir error\n");
else
  echo("scandir success\n");

Whiteboard: (none) => MGA6TOO

MGA5-32 on Asus A6000VM Xfce
No installation issues
Used script from Comment 4 to localhost at CLI:
$ php phpsshtest.py 
te=ssh2.sftp://Resource id #5/tmp/
before scandir!
after scandir!
scandir success

Seems OK.

Testing M6/64

BEFORE update: php-ssh2-0.12-10.mga6
Used the given script (for which many thanks to Marc; it made testing this update easy & sure) with own username & password; but it failed initially:
$ php tmp/phpssh2.php 
PHP Warning:  ssh2_connect(): Unable to connect to localhost on port 22 in /home/lewis/tmp/phpssh2.php on line 2
PHP Warning:  ssh2_connect(): Unable to connect to localhost in /home/lewis/tmp/phpssh2.php on line 2
PHP Warning:  ssh2_auth_password() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in /home/lewis/tmp/phpssh2.php on line 3
auth error
This was resolved by installing & starting openssh-server:

$ php tmp/phpssh2.php 
te=ssh2.sftp://Resource id #5/tmp/
before scandir!
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[as predicted]

AFTER update: php-ssh2-0.12-10.1.mga6
$ php tmp/phpssh2.php 
te=ssh2.sftp://Resource id #5/tmp/
before scandir!
after scandir!
scandir success

So this update is fine. Validating as it has a good M5/32 test.
