 Hi,

 since PHP 5.2 is the minimum version and json extension is bundled and
 compiled by default (http://php.net/manual/en/json.installation.php) maybe
 we should considering to remove this compat from the core.

 It has been restored 4 years ago
 (https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18015) but since the minimal
 version is 5.2 so this can be done IMHO.
