Right, good point, I agree too, thanks! I opened a new PR that goes the other way around: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/24192 I have also updated the RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/single-binary-cli-fpm - php CLI is unchanged - php-fpm *always* includes php (and runs as CLI when run as php instead of php-fpm) - no need for a build option anymore - the diff is simpler - FPM aligns with FrankenPHP (both include the CLI) - No --fpm CLI option anymore, solves the objections raised previously in this thread That sounds much better indeed.
