Nope, it's too far-reaching for it to make it into 5.1. It will take some time to be sure that it doesn't screw up anyplace (similar to the infamous shutdown problems)...

Hello internals, the patch implements __toString to have obejcts be automatically converted to strings anywhere a string is requested. We have talked a lot about this in the past and during OSCON Andi agreed again on it and said that the HEAD version of the engine should be ready for it now. Futher more we have enough time to fix any outstanding engine issues regarding this. http://php.net/~helly/php/ext/ze2/ze2-tostring-20050925.diff.txt If nobody objects with a real technical issue i'll commit the patch early in the week. The patch is a little big longer because it ensures that __toString gets treated and especially gets cached just like any other magic function is.
