The extension is pretty broken right now. I think he tried to emulate
what I did in PHP-GTK and at the same time preserve backwards
compatibility to the old API and that's just not possible. Example,
domxml_children() crashes because it's an alias for $root->children and
for the former case this_ptr is NULL. In PHP-GTK all functions are
methods, but it wouldn't help here.
