It boils down to this: I want to avoid all the grinding of teeth we had
with keeping 3.1 up-to-date. PHP needs to be re-structured to meet Zend,
and I would prefer if we did these two things (restructuring and Zend)
separately, having a working version between each change.
The alternative is to start with a fresh php4 tree, but then we must make
sure extensions are kept up-to-date (better than we did in 3.1). I think
we will need "official" maintainers for each extension for this.
