Looks good so far=E2=80=A6

Thought I've asked you before on IRC to somehow extract validation so =
that we don't have to duplicate it everywhere.

Validate (and cast if necessary) given a zval, strict mode and the =
representation type (class present as ce? as string?)

Also, perhaps a string representation of the type (reusable in =
reflection and in error messages)

Thanks,
Bob=
