The main problem is that they are GPLed, hence we cannot include them into PHP-licensed PHP. Try to persuade the author to change the license. I couldn't.

From what I understand, this is a FCGI controller for PHP (i.e., the other side of FCGI link). However, I'm not sure why any patching of PHP is needed - docs don't seem to explain that and since the code is GPL I'm not sure I want to go look into it.

Well, I didn't look too deeply into the patches to be sure, but in the same time I could not imagine a way to add a process manager without patching the sapi/cgi sources. IIRC the patches also include patched libevent, which I guess don't want to bundle.

Yep. I tried to explain this to Andrey, but he doesn't seem to be interested in getting the patches committed to the core, so I gave up - it's his choice after all.
