This is a bug in simpleindex.php - it turns out you aren't supposed to
call delete_CLASSNAME() methods directly - they're called automatically
when PHP garbage collects the object.  By calling it directly, PHP tries
to delete the already deleted object which causes the segmentation
fault.  Just replace the call with:

$database = Null;
