this patch for PHP5 adds four new string functions into the extension

Please elaborate on how these functions can be useful, why in your
opinion they should be added
to the core (and not PECL) and why this cannot be implemented in PHP itself.
I think, hexdump manipulation functions are very useful string functions.
I have been using hexdump(), packhex() and smart hex functions,
written on PHP, and including it in many projects more than 2 years,
and at last I've implemented it into php core.
Well, what about PEAR package then?
I don't see any certain reasons to add them into the core, if they can be
easily implemented in PHP.
While I can understand your needs, I'm against adding to the core each & every function that can be
useful for a couple of persons using PHP, especially if this function can be implemented in PHP.
So -1 from me.
