Close but not quite :). I was saying that Linux distributors are
going to do what their users want. Otherwise the distribution
dies.
So just because it is in core doesn't mean they have to package.
Also, alot of people compile from tarball to get an optimized version.
So having plPHP in core would be helpful for them.
