You seem to be thinking about creating a PHP extension. I don't think you should go that route. A binary is good enough, we don't need it to be in a PHP extension. That glue could be added later if needed, but would increase the complexity to write and debug.
I took it to mean that he wanted to split the math parsing out as a **MediaWiki** extension, implementing <math> as a parser tag hook in the usual way. Which is definitely highly desirable.
