What I don't understand about the crypt thing you propose - is what problem are
you trying to fix this way?
If there are no problems, then please don't improve anything not broken.
"No reasons to keep it" is wrong, there is at least one reason to keep it as is
- it works fine.

Here are three patches against HEAD [1], 5_2 [2] and the pecl
repository [3] (Do not shout just yet, I'll explain).
The idea of the patches are pretty simple, aliasing rand, srand,
getrandmax to mt_rand, mt_srand, and mt_getrandmax. The goal is simply
having a better number generation. Nothing fancier, or more different,
but simply it. It works great (compiling great against 5_2, HEAD) and
Crisitan Rodriguez also tried the compilation.
After a bit of discussion with Jani, I came to realize that keeping
the wrapper macro for php_rand, php_srand is plain useless. Yes some
pecl extensions do rely on them (and for those who do, I also provided
a patch [3]). We both realized that there's not many extensions
relying on php_rand and php_srand thus removed it completely..
Here are the patches:
[1] HEAD : http://dev.agoraproduction.com/php/php6/head-mt-changes.diff
[2] 5_2 : http://dev.agoraproduction.com/php/5_2/5.2-mt-changes.diff
[3] PECL : http://dev.agoraproduction.com/php/php6/pecl-mt-changes.diff
Please note that the mt-changes patches are not only changing
ext/standard/* but also the ext/* relying on them. (soap, mcrypt) but
also a small change in main/reentrancy.c both in 5_2 and HEAD.
Thanks,
