Sablotron will when I commit the next version (improved error handling, reusing a single processor for increased performance). Its nice if you need to pass a handle (ie, le_sablot or SABLOTG) that both have the same entries.

le_sablot should be global anyway no? You might be right but I don't quite understand what you mean :) Please explain it a bit better :)

Yeah, I mixed up some terminology there. Sablotron will have two structures, a structure for sablotron globals and a structure which represents the sablotron handle. Both structures contain a php_sablot_errors linked list in them (for global error storage as well as per-handle error storage, both of these set of structures have the same name). I have a macro where I simply access those two elements of the structure, so it helps to have a nice macro that lets me get a global handle. Yes it could be done other ways, but that's just one example.... I think its simple helpful to be able to directly access your global structure (in a way that will work in both ZTS mode and normal module the same).

I don't like putting this in the skeleton. The EXTNAMEG() should pretty much cover what is needed and it's used by all of PHP 4 and Zend. If you really need it in your extension it's probably best just to keep it there. I wouldn't want all new extensions using the new macros instead.
