• php-docker

That way: no BC problems. To avoid misuse, probably best to have .ini config that disables this feature by default. A big scary warning could be put both in php.ini and on php.net like "This is an experimental feature, do not use it"

• varexporter

  4 174 5.3 PHP

  A powerful alternative to var_export(), which can export closures and objects without __set_state()

  

Until that thay, you have brick/varexporter 🙂

• php-src

  1 1 0.0 C

  The PHP Interpreter (by thinkverse)

Guessing that's what you meant? [Updated code](https://github.com/thinkverse/php-src/pull/1/files), that still passes the test cases and removed the unnecessary `check` `max_lte` and `min_lte` zval`s.

• PHPT

  276 37,383 10.0 C

  The PHP Interpreter

  

I'm skeptical. I don't think the difference would be huge. The good thing is that it's very easy to test. Basically you want to avoid generating the ZEND_VERIFY_RETURN_TYPE opcode and comment out this code. I think that should work but I'm not 100% sure.
