There's a PHP implementation written in Rust.

This is incredibly interesting. Thanks for mentioning it. Unfortunately it’s not yet ready:

I’ll keep checking

It runs everything that any software I've ever written needs - and I've been doing PHP since dates began with `19`.

But since php isn’t complied, how would I know if something is broken until every code path is exercised? Genuine question

I wonder if PHP compiled with Fil-C would have stopped that bug. My guess is it would have.

My tests show that it would. The post-patch integration tests trap under Fil-C, and the StealMyBitcoin exploit chain traps too.

It’s also compatible with most PHP native extensions.
