     * add a version number to data serialized via serialize().
     * array_add(), array_uniq(). (Andrei)
-    * implement pathinfo() (what the heck is it?)

+               We could also make it return just one part as a sting if used
+               like this:

     * possibly modify parsing of GPC data to automatically create arrays if
       variable name is seen more than once.
     * implement regex-cache for url-functions.
