There's a patch out there (from Greg):
http://php.markmail.org/search/?q=%22potential+shutdown+order%22+list%3Anet.php.lists.internals
that removes regular_list destruction from the Engine and puts it into
main.c. There was some discussion with Stas at the time, who more or less
ended up in agreement with Greg once he realized there was no dl() involved
in the scenario - but no movement, and no alternative proposal. Shutdown
order is historically problematic, as I'm sure you're aware - we need to be
100% sure about this one.

Thanks.

rmdir etc are working now (Dmitry fixed that during his Phar-week).

Dmitry also improved performance while he was in there, but whether Greg
will still want to try and squeeze a few more ms out of it is another matter
:)

OK, let me know when.
