I have created a patch (and attached it to this issue [1] in the issue 
tracker), that does a combination of the above:

* The SWIG_ZTS_SetPointerZval is changed to handle NULL results by calling 
ZVAL_NULL, thus always returning a PHP NULL value instead of a C NULL value 
wrapped in an object.
 * All functions previously covered individually by code to the same effect 
have been restored.
 * All functions returning a string value have had the following statement 
added (where not already present): 'if (!result) result="";'.
