I believe the answer is of the interest of the mailing list. After all the
thread was not started by me.

How can you be so sure?
Weren't you the one that was saying that you opposed to the existence of a
PHP compiler? Despite your opposition, Zeev and Andi brought it up to the
joy of many PHP users.
Since Zeev and Andi seem to be currently the most capable developers to bring
multi-threading capability to PHP because they developed PHP current engine
- Zend, my question still goes for them. After all they always seemed more
reasonable and opened to my suggestions than you.
