At this point in time, I'm confident that the patch[1] works reliably on all Unixes which are supported by the current PHP 4.3 tree. Regressions are not to be expected. Win32 is an open question -- I think I remember something along the line that stdio works better on Win32, but that should be answered by a local expert. If there is such a preference, it can be simply added to main/streams.c. > My ulterior motive is > of course that we lose the stupid stdio buffer-size stat() call which I > could sorely use in the current 4.3 tree. Avoiding regressions is my goal. Optimizations can be done in a second step. [1] http://www.php.net/~sas/patch-lexer-no-stdio - Sascha
