I wanted but I have no enough karma for it. ext/xml extension needs additional re-work in Expat detection logic too if we want to provide support for different Expat system version (not bundled one) too. Another feature I have already coded and would add to ext/xml is the iconv support. It allows automagically re-encode data to UTF-8 from any encoding supported by iconv (libiconv or glibc) if it is specified in XML header but uknown to Expat itself. > > By looking at ChangeLog I couldn't find a commit for this, so I guess > this has not happened, but correct me if I'm wrong. > > If the bundled expat sources haven't been upgraded, I'd say we do this > before braching for the release-cycle of 4.0.6. > > Another issue is the bundled mysql client library. phpinfo() currently > shows 3.23.32 as its API version.
