Could `php_strip_whitespace()` be changed to work on strings, too?

 Before I did that I wanted to make sure that it is possible.

 Anyway, I opened

   http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=33419

 and Johannes came up with a patch

   http://www.schlueters.de/php_string_strip_whitespace.diff

 that works for me.

 It would be great if this could go into PHP 5.1.0. Andi?

may be this patch can be usefull to do that. it trick the engine and force
it to read input from memory. i had done it for old features
php_check_syntax.
If it's needed i can redo it.
