Your analysis is correct, however(functionally speaking) the only attribute
that NEEDs to be explicitly set NULL is fname. The rest can be garbage and
everything will still function fine. The second and third elements are set
NULL becasue they can be safely without losing version agnosticism.
We could extend the skeleton with a couple of zeros in those elements, but
it'd need a note on the indavisability of doing that if you need BC with 4
(the compiler would spit error about excess elements in initializer).
I'm all for a macro, maybe even a full start/end set like the
global/ini/arg_info declarations have. Again, there's version BC to be
considered, but that can be solved with some #ifndefs in the skeleton...
PHP_BEGIN_FUNCTION_LIST(extname)
PHP_FE(...)
PHP_FE(...)
PHP_FE(...)
PHP_END_FUNCTION_LIST(extname)
Same for the module entry....
These are all just window dressing though so unless someone else sees this
as a worthwhile thing...*shrug*
