* all internal use of sprintf, snprintf and the like will always
use the . as thousands seperator (if php.h is included only!).
* echo, printf() and sprintf() always render locale-aware
* added the %F modifier for non-locale aware rendering for floats
#on some *nix systems sleep() is implemented with SIGALRM. When SIGALRM
#interrupts sleep() it returns the number of seconds that has to be slept
#till the number of seconds wanted by the script. Sleep() on Windows is

We avoid the problem by using poll(2).
On systems without poll(2) (older bsd-ish systems, and win32), we emulate
poll(2) using select(2) and check for valid descriptors before attempting
to access them via the descriptor sets.
If an out-of-range descriptor is detected, an E_WARNING is raised suggesting
that PHP should be recompiled with a larger FD_SETSIZE (and also with a
suggested value).
Most uses of select(2) in the source are to poll a single descriptor, so
a couple of handy wrapper functions have been added to make this easier.
A configure option --enable-fd-setsize has been added to both the unix and
win32 builds; on unix we default to 16384 and on windows we default to 256.
Windows FD_SETSIZE imposes a limit on the maximum number of descriptors that
can be select()ed at once, whereas the unix FD_SETSIZE limit is based on the
highest numbered descriptor; 256 should be plenty for PHP scripts under windows
(the default OS setting is 64).
The win32 specific parts are untested; will do that now.
Register filters as resources when
instantiated by stream_filter_(ap|pre)pend().
Export php_stream_filter_flush() internal function to wind buffered data
out of a particular filter until consumed by a later filter or sent to
stream->readbuffer or stream->ops->write()
Disables a wrapper (user-defined or built-in) for the life of the request.
Add stream_wrapper_restore()
Restores the wrapper originally defined at the time the request started
to the protocol name mentioned.
