Can we add a notice into the configure script in 5.x when using these extensions and move them into PECL for 6.0? A hint in 5.x will inform the few people who are using the extensions that they will find them in PECL in future. Maybe current configure options like "--with-hwapi" will be kept and print an error message about moved extension. This would help those people, who take old configuration options to recompile new version.

(Don't worry, this is for 5.2 and HEAD. 5.1 is untouchable atm).

I just think the timing should be on a major release (6.0) and not a
minor one (5.x) since the changes to code-base seem rather large and
wide-sweeping, even if the functionality and userbase are believed to
be negligible.

Why tick off that one developer by "removing" functionality in an
upgrade, when that's only supposed to happen in a major release?
