Not sure why not. If it's just the name collision, call them
alt_ereg*() until ereg*() goes away. In fact, it's much easier to
write unit tests against your new functions if the old functions are
still hanging around.

Well, the RFCs are here, but you probably already found them:
http://wiki.php.net/rfc (register is in the bottom-right
corner).
Can't help you with your php-internals problem, I'm afraid. Tried
emailing the list manager?

Fair enough. Good luck.
