[Sorta OT] Mystery zcontext?

I was digging around the ext/standard today and I wanted to do something with the file access stuff, however I'm a bit lost on something... I'd appreciate it if someone could explain this (as it's basically undocumented). What is the fourth parameter for the fopen() function? It's listed as a resource, and there is some mention of using callbacks, etc.... But I can't pin it down looking at the code... Anyone care to comment what the zcontext parameter does?
