Its not laziness... I'm not having that many '#ifdef's in the code.
Some cases it makes sense for cURL to have #ifdef's, in some cases it'll
just make the code both unreadable and unmaintainable. 

The solution I'm working on is to autogenerate from the curl.h and
multi.h files.   However, that's after i get the multi interface in, and
the cURL extension is hopefully up-to-date.

Anyhow, I get the point.   I just don't find it valid, if you're
doing QA, than upgrading to a pre-release is not that much harder than
upgrading to the release itself.

PHP-Curl is _not_ that often tested in the QA process, simply because
most features rely on a server being available, and with PHP/QA there is
none.  Therefore, very few regression tests.
