If you have any major patches left over, please commit them as they will
no longer be accepted for 5.2.2.

Reminder:

http://pear.php.net/~greg/halt fixes the buggy limitation on 1
__HALT_COMPILER();/COMPILER_HALT_OFFSET constant per request, and
instead allows 1 per file, without any performance impact or structural
changes to any other code, plus I've provided 4 unit tests to
demonstrate its correctness.

Thanks,
Greg

I have no CVS access, so please some of the skilled devs take my patch
for multicast there. It only adds features (branches to case, some
constants), it should not broke anything.

Somebody on the list complained that last one was for 5.1.6, here is a
recent one (on my machine its in use for almost 30 days):

Also, if merged, close the bug http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=40510
(somebody found my page and made a feature reqest)

Thanks,
Daniel Rozsnyo

This is a stable branch, right? What to do with PHP5 development stuff
which should not wait till PHP6? Looking at PHP4 one day there will be
PHP 5_3 branch, for sure.

If you have any major patches left over, please commit them as they will
no longer be accepted for 5.2.2.
