?Fileinfo - An improved and more solid replacement, featuring full BC, for

ICU library. 
?Phar - Implementation of PHP-Archive files. 
?SQLite3 - Support for SQLite version 3 databases.

Our group would also like to see the 5.3 upgrade, specifically for its
improved garbage collection.  We're having memory leak problems at the
moment, which are reported as fixed from 5.2.9 to 5.3.x
