The behavior of the new mb_encode_mimeheader implementation closely follows the old implementation, except for three points: • The old implementation was missing a call to the mbfl_convert_filter flush function. So it would sometimes truncate the input string just before its end. • The old implementation would drop zero bytes when QPrint-encoding. So for example, if you tried to QPrint-encode the UTF-32BE string "\x00\x00\x12\x34", its QPrint-encoding would be "=12=34", which does not decode to a valid UTF-32BE string. This is now fixed. • In some rare corner cases, the new implementation will choose to Base64-encode or QPrint-encode the input string, where the old implementation would have just added newlines to it. Specifically, this can happen when there is a non-space ASCII character, followed by a large number of ASCII spaces, followed by a non-ASCII character. The new implementation is around 2.5-8x faster than the old one, depending on the text encoding and transfer encoding used. Performance gains are greater with Base64 transfer encoding than with QPrint transfer encoding; this is not because QPrint-encoding bytes is slow, but because QPrint-encoded output is much bigger than Base64-encoded output and takes more lines, so we have to go through the process of finding the right place to break a line many more times.
libmbfl
This is libmbfl, a streamable multibyte character code filter and converter library, written by Shigeru Kanemoto.
The original version of libmbfl is developed and distributed at https://github.com/moriyoshi/libmbfl under the LGPL 2.1 license. See the LICENSE file for licensing information.
The libmbfl library is bundled with PHP as a fork of the original repository and is not in sync with the upstream. As such, the libmbfl directory is directly modified in the php-src repository.
