There is no need for that. zvalue_value value; /* value */ zend_uint refcount; zend_uchar type; /* active type */ ! zend_uchar is_ref; }; --- 289,296 ---- zvalue_value value; /* value */ zend_uint refcount; zend_uchar type; /* active type */ ! zend_uchar is_ref:7; ! zend_uchar taint_flag:1; }; Perhaps a working implementation will be convincing. I offer to do the work, other people lose nothing except the possibility that they will be proven right.
