I don't think this should be a concern.  The FANN 2.0 API is not
backwards compatible, I don't think it's reasonable to expect language
bindings to be.  Furthermore, I don't think many people (if any)
actually use this extension--I'm not aware of anyone who does, and the
only messages I get concerning it are occasional requests for a version
which works with FANN 2.0.  To be honest, I don't even know if it works
with newer versions of PHP.
