I don't think that this can be added in any useful way to PHP_Compat. As soon as you use a new name, it cannot be used with applications that do not know anything about PHP_Compat as they will always call the built-in function.
Packages that need to rely on the extra/new parameters of those functions would have a required dependency on PHP_Compat. Of course there is always the code-duplication solution, but if PHP_Compat has the functions (regression tested) then it would be a good place to look for code... -Philippe
