From: zeev@zend.com (Zeev Suraski)

Anthony,

While I only put in the final changes today, they're identical to what I
said was going to be done on the discussion thread a week+ ago, there was no
further feedback or discussion on these changes.  The patch (minus these two
minor changes) has been available for over a week.
I think we've had enough drama with scalar type hints already and it's time
for closure.  Let's let the two votes go through and finally get clarity.
If people find big rejects on the tweaked patch which requires substantial
meaningful changes - I'll restart the vote if necessary.

Thanks,

Zeev
