Comment:

 Function names are case insensitive in PHP (e.g. try {{{php -r 'pRiNT
 "hello";'}}} so forcing them to lowercase wouldn't help avoid a collision.

 These functions are purely an implementation detail for how SWIG
 implements PHP5 class wrappers.  The risk of a clash seems to be purely
 theoretical as far as I can see, so sorry, but I'm going to mark this as
 "wontfix".  If there ever was an issue, we could patch SWIG to add a
 prefix and not break any code using the bindings.
