I see no reasons why not to have it, especially if something like it
was already implemented... Anyone?

In the CLI version, you can do:
'php -l {filename}'
and find out whether the file you specified is syntactically correct.
This would be a powerful feature to be able to call from userland when
deciding whether or not to include files based on whether or not they
are valid PHP files.
I know this is in the Zend area of things, but it would be a very cool
addition.
In /sapi/cli/php_cli.c, it seems like a trivial function. Before
creating a function to submit, or someone beating me to it, is there a
good reason NOT to do this?
