For the record here, I'm not in favor of bundling igbinary (or other custom serializer). My main concerns are: . the PHP serializer can be overridden at runtime (as in after the build) . there will always have some new faster, better, sexier serializer, depending on the app/usages . we can't enable it by default (as other stated too here) for BC reason (and interop) . not enabling it by default defeats the purpose of bundling it . easier to support it while being only in pecl ('do you use the core version or latest pecl?")
