Besides the obvious implementation considerations (should the Singleton
object be unique in a single PHP instance or across "all" PHP instances,
etc.), I am very much against putting reference implementations of
design patterns into a programming language. If you want this, you have
not understood the intention of design patterns (or the difference (in
degrees of freedom) when compared to algorithms).
