If someone is interested in providing PHP support, please understand 
that the code in contrib/wisent-php was written by someone who did not 
want it attributed to them, and could not sign papers for it.  That is 
why it is in the CEDET "contrib" area where I've kept such software 
separate.

In order to add php support to Semantic, etc it is better to start from 
scratch so it can be properly integrated into Emacs.
