The patch we promised - redesigned the compilation/execution API:

Advantages:
- Smaller memory footprint for the op arrays
- Slightly faster compilation times (due to saved erealloc() calls and faster zend_op
  initialization)
- include_once() & require_once() share the same file list
- Consistency between include() and require() - this mostly means that return()
  works inside require()'d files just as it does in include() files (it used to
  be meaningless in require()'d files, most of the time (see below))
- Made require() consistent with itself.  Before, if the argument was not a constant
  string, require() took the include() behavior (with return()).
- Removed lots of duplicate code.
Bottom line - require() and include() are very similar now;  require() is simply an include()
which isn't allowed to fail.  Due to the erealloc() calls for large op arrays, require()
didn't end up being any faster than include() in the Zend engine.
