PLs are sufficiently tightly tied to the core that it's probably 
easier to maintain them as part of our core CVS than otherwise.
(Ask Joe Conway about PL/R.  Thomas Hallgren is probably not that
happy about maintaining pl/java out of core, either.  And pl/perl
*is* in core.)

I'm thinking that a pl/PHP is much more interesting for the long term
than, say, pl/tcl (mind you, I am a Tcl partisan from way back, but
I see that many people are not so enlightened).  Barring any licensing
problems I think this is something to pursue.
