We are, after all, past RC1 at this point and doing a major surgery on php and its build and test systems is irresponsible. I hate to say it, but there were plenty of opportunities to bring up the issues with CLI in the past several months. I could go the long way and repeat the motivatiom behind the creation of CLI at this point, but instead I would like to recommend that we take evolutionary approach. First make CLI a CGI without all the CGI garbage. Always build it with PHP. (this is where we are now). The next step is moving PHP in the direction of general purpose scripting language. Edin
