========================
1. Internal API changes
========================
a. Object Handlers API and some related functions, e.g. zend_call_method() and
zend_objects_clone_obj() were changed to receive zend_object* instead of
zval* and zend_string* instead of zval* for property names.
b. ZEND_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION and corresponding call_method() object handler
were removed. ZEND_INTERNAL_FUNCTION with ZEND_ACC_CALL_VIA_HANDLER and
defined "handler" callback should be used instead. This "handler" callback
should also take care about function cleanup. See ext/zend_test/test.c
for example.
c. The following things have been removed from TSRM:
- TSRMLS_DC
- TSRMLS_D
- TSRMLS_CC
- TSRMLS_C
- TSRMLS_FETCH
- TSRMLS_FETCH_FROM_CTX
- TSRMLS_SET_CTX
- tsrm_new_interpreter_context
- tsrm_set_interpreter_context
- tsrm_free_interpreter_context
- support for GNUPTH, SGI ST, and BETHREADS
========================
2. Build system changes
========================
a. Abstract
b. Unix build system changes
1. --enable-maintainer-zts is renamed --enable-zts for parity with Windows
and as recognition that ZTS is not a "maintainer" or experimental feature.
c. Windows build system changes
========================
3. Module changes
========================
