Uh, this is news to me. We did our full release testing with WinCache + Zend
Opcache enabled (NTS x86) and no failures were reported. If there are things
we should be telling our customers, now is the time to let us know...

We are marking the opcode cache portion of WinCache as "deprecated" in 1.3.5;
This is the first step towards removal of the code. We would like to get the
(WinCache + Zend Opcache) configuration "baked" for one full PHP release cycle.
So the soonest we would consider removing the WinCache opcode cache would be
at the PHP 5.6 release time.

Hm. Going off the number of installs of PHP via the Web Platform Installer
(WPI), I would *hope* that Zend would consider Windows customers in their
plans. ^_^
