I personally have no codebase to test. These results come from a simple PHP core 'make test,
probably not representative of a real application, I agree.
I expected ML members to try the tool on their codebase and return numbers but, as usual, after
everyone asked for a BC break evaluation tool, now it is here and nobody uses it.
I cannot do more than providing the tool. If nobody wants to use it, we'll have to make a
decision based on the few not so representative numbers we have. But I won't accept arguments
on potential *huge* BC break if none is able to give 10 minutes to evaluate the *real* risk.

François
