Just as a side note. I have been following Phar development closely
since basically the beginning of the project and I must admit that
despite being an advocate and user of this piece of code, over the
past few months, Greg has put up a LOT of effort and wonderful
commits. I personally have been impressed by his C skills that I was
not aware of before.

This said, I believe that phar can be used widely by many many
projects and that anyone using java and jar files have the right to be
awful jealous about the phar in php.

Anyways, thanks greg you have made my life much easier with the strike
of commits and optimizations + features you have added to phar. I want
it in core, want it now.

Thanks Greg and Marcus a bunch (once again)
