    arguments and mixed numeric/named arguments in ICU 4.8+. (Gustavo)

  . The default time zone used in IntlDateFormatter::__construct and

    passed) is now the one given by date_default_timezone_get(), not the
    default ICU time zone. (Gustavo)
  . The time zone passed to the IntlDateFormatter is ignored if it is NULL and
    if the calendar passed is an IntlCalendar object -- in this case, the
    IntlCalendar's time zone will be used instead. Otherwise, the time zone
    specified in the $timezone argument is used instead. This does not affect
    old code, as IntlCalendar was introduced in this version. (Gustavo)
  . IntlDateFormatter::__construct and datefmt_create() now accept for the
    $calendar argument also IntlCalendar objects. (Gustavo)
  . IntlDateFormatter::getCalendar() and datefmt_get_calendar() return false
    if the IntlDateFormatter was set up with an IntlCalendar instead of the
    constants IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN/TRADITIONAL. IntlCalendar did not
    exist before this version. (Gustavo)
  . IntlDateFormatter::setCalendar() and datefmt_set_calendar() now also accept
    an IntlCalendar object, in which case its time zone is taken. Passing a
    constant is still allowed, and still keeps the time zone. (Gustavo)
  . IntlDateFormatter::setTimeZoneID() and datefmt_set_timezone_id() are
    deprecated. Use IntlDateFormatter::setTimeZone() or datefmt_set_timezone()
    instead. (Gustavo)
  . IntlDateFormatter::format() and datefmt_format() now also accept an
    IntlCalendar object for formatting. (Gustavo)
  . Added the classes: IntlCalendar, IntlGregorianCalendar, IntlTimeZone,

    intlcal_get_actual_maximum(), intlcal_get_actual_minimum(),
    intlcal_get_day_of_week_type(), intlcal_get_first_day_of_week(),
    intlcal_get_greatest_minimum(), intlcal_get_least_maximum(),

    intlcal_set_skipped_wall_time_option(), intlcal_from_date_time(),
    intlcal_to_date_time(), intlcal_get_error_code(),
    intlcal_get_error_message(), intlgregcal_create_instance(),
    intlgregcal_set_gregorian_change(), intlgregcal_get_gregorian_change() and
    intlgregcal_is_leap_year(). (Gustavo)
  . Added the functions: intltz_create_time_zone(), intltz_create_default(),
    intltz_get_id(), intltz_get_gmt(), intltz_get_unknown(),

    intltz_create_time_zone_id_enumeration(), intltz_get_canonical_id(),
    intltz_get_region(), intltz_get_tz_data_version(),
    intltz_get_equivalent_id(), intltz_use_daylight_time(), intltz_get_offset(),
    intltz_get_raw_offset(), intltz_has_same_rules(), intltz_get_display_name(),
    intltz_get_dst_savings(), intltz_from_date_time_zone(),
    intltz_to_date_time_zone(), intltz_get_error_code(),
    intltz_get_error_message(). (Gustavo)

    IntlDateFormatter::getCalendarObject(), IntlDateFormatter::getTimeZone(),
    IntlDateFormatter::setTimeZone(). (Gustavo)
  . Added the functions: datefmt_format_object(), datefmt_get_calendar_object(),
    datefmt_get_timezone(), datefmt_set_timezone(),
    datefmt_get_calendar_object(), intlcal_create_instance(). (Gustavo)
