I see another issue after reading this, and that is that it makes it much harder for users to depend on specific extensions just being always available by default. It's important for application distributers to have this core set of extensions to rely on. It's annoying enough that some distributions (gentoo, freebsd) already use --disable-all and their users then bugging us (or me) with "you should check that SPL is enabled in your code". regards, Derick -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
