So it appears that gd is in the exact same situation as ext/dba/libcdb
which I explicitly ported for PHP. Now that one has 82.1% coverage so
obviously has no larger non PHP chunks and also seems to be triggered
in quite enough ways. So I didn't pull it.

My intention was to drop libs that hopefully have there own testing
infrastructure and don't get fully triggered by PHP testing. Best
example is pcre. Where it simply doesn't make sense to write phpt tests
that trigger all those edge cases from PHP. So we rather exclude that
from our calculations as we don't even have the intention to test those.


Best regards,
 Marcus
