It shouldn't just be undocumented and the src left in core, it should
probably be moved to PECL .

Also, it would be good to know what those who have worked on this in the
past consider the state of this extension to be. The last commit I can see
that was directly related to it (as opposed to project-wide fixes like
find/replace for new macros, big blobs of typo fixes etc) was in 2011, but
it looks like a few people have put a fair amount of work in prior to
that... are there any technical blockers on progress, or is it simply that
there's not enough demand for it/people haven't had the time to work on it?
