The obfuscated code in functions.js in the git repo is very strange, too... What did it do and why was it obfuscated? https://github.com/php/web-php/commit/06a0

  It's a quick ref of functions for an autocomplete list. If you have this in your html as the only form: <form> <input type="text" id="pattern"/> <input type="text" id="show" value="quickref" /> </form> <script> document.forms[0].pattern = document.getElementById('pattern'); document.forms[0].show = document.getElementById('show'); </script> then include the functions js you will see an autocomplete list of functions when you type into the pattern box. The lists of function names are stored in a compressed string at the top so it's not really obfuscated, just minified. They shouldn't store it minified though.

    That's so weird. Why wouldn't they just use HTTP GZip.
