Added support for GNU Hurd. (Svante Signell)

Implement variadic function syntax

As per RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/variadics

Added function opcache_compile_file() to load PHP scripts into cache without execution.

Fixed issue #135 (segfault in interned strings if initial memory is too low)

Merge branch 'PHP-5.4' into PHP-5.5

Copy dba_*() keys before converting to string.

A nice Sunday afternoon project for somebody would be to refactor the dba
functions to use zend_parse_parameters() reliably and try to untangle some of
the macros in dba.c. Sadly, it is not a nice Sunday afternoon here.

Fixes bug #65708 (dba functions cast $key param to string in-place, bypassing
copy on write).

Request non-keep-alive connections by default in HTTP 1.1 requests.

As noted in FR #65634, at present we don't send a Connection request header
when the protocol version is set to 1.1, which means that RFC-compliant Web
servers should respond with keep-alive connections. Since there's no way of
reusing the HTTP connection at present, this simply means that PHP will appear
to hang until the remote server hits its connection timeout, which may be quite
some time.

This commit sends a "Connection: close" header by default when HTTP 1.1 (or
later) is requested by the user via the context options. It can be overridden
by specifying a Connection header in the context options. It isn't possible to
disable sending of the Connection header, but given "Connection: keep-alive" is
the same as the default HTTP 1.1 behaviour, I don't see this as a significant
issue — users who want to opt in for that still can.

As a note, although I've removed an efree(protocol_version), this doesn't
result in a memory leak: protocol_version is freed in the out: block at the end
of the function anyway, and there are no returns between the removed efree()
and the later call. Yes, I ran the tests with valgrind to check that. ☺

Implements FR #65634 (HTTP wrapper is very slow with protocol_version 1.1).

Allow CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION to be used with open_basedir.

Newer versions of libcurl prevent file:// location response headers by default,
which means that the open_basedir check is unnecessary — the fact
CURLOPT_REDIR_PROTOCOLS can't set CURLPROTO_FILE with open_basedir enabled
means that there's no possibility of breaching the open_basedir restriction,
and this allows HTTP redirects to be followed automatically.

Implements FR #65646 (re-enable CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION with open_basedir or
safe_mode).
