Quick sidequestion: Does HHVM support the Weakref extension? I ask because while it is not listed on the github wiki[1] but does appear in the manual[2]. I'm assuming the manual is an oversight, branched from PHP's manual and not pruned. That said, weak-references are indispensable for certain problems, and I'd love to see them standard.

  If you click on any of the methods in the manual, you'll see "NOT SUPPORTED IN HHVM" in a large font. I'm guessing it's an oversight that that text is missing from the topic index as well.
