At least they should be reviewed once again.
I already have questions for the
https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/9108a32bfe881c3b1e2f3b2949b0e9fe1b9c6dda

I'm not too paranoid about small changes and changes in extensions code.
I didn't object when you proposed small refactoring steps. (e.g. adding
"const" and "static" or small include clenups).

This is not personal. I saw you are smart and may find and fix not trivial
bugs. I assume all contributors have good intentions.
The problem with your commits, that you started rewriting EVERYTHING (the
core parts of php) without a deep knowledge and without agreement with
mainteners.
They already started to break things (See Nikita's notes about RC
debugger).
Formally they were committed after a declined RFC.

I already proposed a way that might work.

Thanks. Dmitry.
