Description:
------------
If php_win32_get_random_bytes() has never been called, then this line of code:

+	CryptReleaseContext(hCryptProv, 0);

passes a null pointer, resulting in a C0000005 exception in 
CryptReleaseContext().  This line should be preceded by:

        if (has_crypto_ctx)

This was specifically tested with the windows.php.net 32-bit TS build running on 
64-bit Windows.  I do not know how it behaves in other configurations.


Test script:
---------------
I do not have a short test case, but the bug is pretty obvious.
