Hi Hans,

This is an interesting point and I can see the advantages to make use of
the PHP5 specific functions. If we decide to make a php5 branch this
will become the main branch one day php4 is really off. Currently I'm
not sure what consequences a separate branch will have for the ongoing
development. All new functions will have to be added to the trunk AND
the php5 branch, right?

In general I agree to have this branch if somebody (you?) will take care
of it.

Regards,
Thomas
