what laruence is trying to say that we don't really have a syberia for
SAPIs as we have for exts(pecl), but given how these SAPIs are not
maintained/compatible with PHP7, I don't think that it is a blocker problem.
just maybe something we could improve with the future (would also make it
easier to develop SAPIs supporting multiple php versions for example
opcache and phpdbg, currently those are a bit PITA for the maintainers).
