Comment (by jrf):

 @johnbillion I've had a quick look and I would strongly recommend against
 this patch.

 The performance of a function like `array_merge()` is often even worse
 than `func_get_args()`, so in effect, especially with using it twice, this
 would make one of the most used functions in WP slower instead of faster
 decreasing the overall performance (which the variadic changes were
 about).
