Thrawn, you should recompile the binaries to include the changes you've made, both the binaries here and on GitHub, for example, don't include json_load_ex().
Just throwing this out here since I found json_load_ex() to be extremely useful for checking for valid json without logging errors. Tell me if you want me to post here the Linux binary I compiled in case you're unable to compile it.
Thank you anyway for this awesome and well-documented extension
