Thanks for the review Johannes. I just pushed the following changes:

* Include guard + license in constants.h
* Replaced rogue tabs with spaces
* Replace reference params with mixed return types
* Use zend_parse_parameters_none for zero-arg functions
* Use add_assoc_long_ex for constant string keys

I'll request an account.
