Well, most of it can probably be used inside php4. We just need to put
data in abstracted containers in sapi on the sapi end of things. What I
mean by that, is for instance, we have a pointer to the cookies and
headers:

sapi->cookies
sapi->headers

On the sapi end, we just take the apropriate stuff from the server and
stick them there. On the php end, we have to parse that info and do
whatever we want with it.
