It is a bit of work to support php's stream upstream. I wanted to do
it back then but it was simply easier to patch the bundled version.

To support stream it would need something like what we do in libgd or
something along this line, so we can pass our own handles and ops.

I totally agree but not always possible. Same problem with the
timezone, users experience matters more too as everyone gets on the
same line/stage with a given PHP release and avoids many data related
issues.
