Hi!

I've starting playing around with the zend engine,

is there any hope / plans  for better interoperability with how
zend_compile_file() should be extended?

The goal being to reduce the amount of  "X is not compatible with Y".

In most cases, overriding zend_compile_file() and calling previous handler should be enough. If it doesn't work of soe special modifications then additional handlers might not help either. Compatibility problems can arise from something like extension X (e.g. bytecode cache) expects certain structures to reside in shared memory for performance reasons while extension Y modifying them since it doesn't know anything about extension X.

# Bytecode loaders / optimizers / dumpers (zend optimizer, ioncube loader,
vld, etc.)

Those should use other handlers, such as op array ctor/dtor/handler.
