Please consider reverting to 0.11 in Fedora 21


This update breaks php-pecl-jsonc (lot of test are now "failed")


We already have lot of people crying because of minor behavior change
between ext/json (non-free) and pecl/jsonc, introducing some other is
juste a very bad idea.


My goal is to fork the json-c parser, bundled it in pecl/jsonc (yes !)
and adapt it to optimize parser time and fix difference with ext.json

But this is a long road and probably not in a very short time.



Remi.
