It affects the whole PHP environment, o+ becomes the de facto standard, it will replace APC or any other external projects per se in the long run. If such a move does not affect PHP then I do not know what else. > Much like a performance > improvement patch that has no effect on the language syntax doesn't need > 2/3.

But you'd to see that this RFC has been pushed badly in so many ways. That's not fine. And you also (or should) know that I am (or was) one of the 1st supporter to push into the core. We put our resources to test, fix and valid every single change in it since it was OSSed. However the way it is handled brings doubts, and I really don't want to have doubts for such a critical piece of the PHP environment.
