D'oh! Thanks for the history lesson.

 - simplexml / DOM parsing / libxml2
 - json_encode|decode
JSON PECL extension can be installed for PHP >= 4.3.0

It *can* be, but it is compiled by default in PHP 5.2, which is the version recommended by we in the 'go php5 go!' crowd. It's critical for projects like Drupal to consider what the base features are and develop for that.

Except for the OO, I don't see anything that can't be done in PHP4,
while it can be done in PHP5. Some workarounds are maybe needed, but
it mostly doesn't require more than 10 lines of PHP code extra.

Most of what I mentioned could be implemented on top of PHP 4, but that's not the same as being implemented *in* PHP 5.2 and compiled by default.
