There are really just two big features in APC. The opcode caching and
the user-cache that sits on top of the same shared memory segment used
by the opcode cache. Everything else are just little tweaks that amount
to very little code. The biggest cleanup we would get moving it to core
would be the ability to drop all the #ifdef checks for the different
engine versions since we would obviously only need to support the
current one.
