Subject: boolval() again
From: dsp@php.net (David Soria Parra)

Going through the 26 open pull requests (please let us work on getting
that number down), I stumbled over https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/60.

This was already proposed on the mailinglits, but the thread died fast without
a satisfying answer on whether to add a function boolval() or not.

Personally I would like to see the function in. Having a complete set
of XYZval() functions is a good reason for me to add that function. The
implementation is simple and straight forward and easy to maintain.

Do we need an RFC for that simple pull request or can we just go ahead
and pull it?
