A global *could* be added to restrict adding functions/classes to EG(function_table)/EG(class_table), something like CG(register_functions) = 0 and CG(register_classes) = 0 or something. It'd only be one extra if statement per declaration so it certainly doesn't *seem* all that bad. It's up to the Zend folks though. As mentioned earlier, parsekit has a hackish workaround by comparing the hash tables before/after compilation and to my knowledge it hasn't had any major issues, so it's not a *necessary* thing. -Sara
