It looks like extensions that don't use this new API will continue to
work, they'll just leak when __set() is used with them.

We should bump the zend API number to allow extensions to make use of
the new API.

Yes, as soon as you do not use these two new functions, they will
"only" leak, like before ;-)
I was talking about the ones affected by this commit.

It should be the case more often, it is getting really hard to know
when and what was introduced (even harder as there is no changelog for
internals changes).
