[RFC] [Discussion] Deprecate functions with overloaded signatures

Hi Internals, As you have possibly already experienced, overloaded signatures cause various smaller and bigger issues, while the concept is not natively supported by PHP. That's why I drafted an RFC which intends to phase out the majority of overloaded function/method signatures and also forbid the introduction of such functions in the future: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecate_functions_with_overloaded_signatures I'm not sure at all what the best solution would be to get rid of the overloaded FFI methods, so I hope that someone comes up with a better idea. Currently, the RFC suggests deprecating and then removing the static methods in question, but I hope that we can find a more elegant approach. So this section is incomplete and it's just for starting the discussion. Regards, Máté
