Mr. Hamada,

If you lack a solid grasp of Zend Engine internals and core data structures
like zval—which is the very backbone of PHP’s C runtime—it feels like you
are simply relying on an AI assistant rather than technical understanding.
Without mastering zval and Zend memory handling, working at this level in C
is effectively crippled.

To answer your question: I am testing this on high-end industrial 64-bit
hardware, and your provided files still completely fail to build.

Perhaps you should tell your AI to think a bit harder before generating
patches and benchmarks.
