I've updated altmbstring RFC as this RFC name implies. Original author
was intended to provide alternative to mbstring.

In contrast, my RFC is intended to replace mbstring by mbstring-ng.
There are technical difficulties to copy all of mbstring feature to
mbstring-ng,
we may evaluate them and decide migration procedure when mbstring-ng is
ready.

Choices would be
 - provide mbstring-ng as alternative of mbstring
     - keep mbstring-ng in php-src, move mbstring to PECL
     - keep both mbstring-ng and mbstring in php-src
 - replace mbstring by mbstring-ng and move mbstring to PECL as
mbstring-legacy.

I'm not sure which one is the best. We may try to find out by providing
mbstring-ng
as EXPERIMENTAL module.

Regards,
