Any news on accepting the PHP multicasting patch?

This lack of support really cramps the style...so I had to hack around as
follows:
if a UDP packet is sent to 255.255.255.255:1900 with flag SO_BROADCAST it
gets through to a listener with binding '0.0.0.0:1900' and flag set to
SO_REUSEADDR (if appropriate). This is true for all methods...
BTW, not sure if this half-support is known or not (lotsa
confusion/frustration on forums)
