And again: The people releasing external extensions should make a releases for certain versions of PHP/Zend as it still is a moving target. IMNSHO.

So you think we should break the configure now when the release date is so close? Umm..I really don't understand how THAT would be a good thing to do. I think it's better to give the developers of those extensions enough time to make the necessary changes into their code before a PHP with changed configure is released. Or are you saying that we should break everything in 4.0.5-BOOM ? :) (could we have some nice 'codenames' for the releases? Please.. :) --Jani
