Hi Guilherme

Hi guys,
First of all, don't laugh! =D
The idea and patch are extremely simple.
Based on recent experiments with Namespaces and FQCN thing I spoke
with Johannes a couple of days ago, I decided to dive into source and
try a possible patch.
That's my first attempt to contribution to internals. Mainly I try to
help on PHP side.
I don't think we should introduce a new special constant for this,
seems sort of useless to me, I know theres issues with FQCN, but I'll
rather write:
$ns = '\\' . $dynamic_class_name . '\\' . $blah;
than:
$ns = NS_SEPARATOR . $dynamic_class_name . NS_SEPARATOR . $blah;
so im a -1 for introducing this in PHP, even though im using a danish
keyboard that doesn't have \, but thats not a reason not to press 2
buttons at once, that you're already used to if you code.
The idea is to create a new global constant NS_SEPARATOR to be used. I
know constants are used to represent internal values or values that
differ between different OS's, but the main idea here is to prevent
possible issues from user land and also to help people that do not
have "\" key in their keyboard (like finnish keyboards).
Here is a clear usage of this new constant:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.namespaces.dynamic.php#91552
I don't really know if the file is the right one to have this
constant, but it works for me perfectly.

}
This is most likely to break the Windows build without looking at the
code any closer because of the declaring, just use:
REGISTER_MAIN_STRING_CONSTANT("NS_SEPARATOR", ZEND_NS_NAME,
CONST_PERSISTENT | CONST_CS);
(I think it was ZEND_NS_NAME for the seperator)
