Since it is evaluated at compile time, run time check is not needed at all when

There are many code out there checks if (!extention_loaded(foo')) die('You need
foo'). This is waste of CPU resources once it is checked. These requirements for
scripts may be evaluated at compile time and script runs a little faster.


And if the system you are running no longer has your 'byte code cache'? I'm still running eaccelerator as it's the base for all the legacy systems.
