PHP license is AFAIK incompatible with GPL, so we can not include PHP licensed code.
Well that's damned unfortunate. Is there any way to get around this?

Ask original author to relicense. PHP license is anyway not a good choice for anything what was not released by the "PHP Group". The author might consider regular BSD-style license, which is basically same, but just without the PHP trademark and "PHP Group" copyright.
Alright, I'll send the maintainer an e-mail first thing tomorrow.

Well, it's been about a week since I sent the email and I have gotten no response thus far.
How badly is the ability to import XLS files needed, especially since the CSV module has been/is being improved (everything can export to CSV)?

Not really needed, just ignore it for now and focus on other things. I think even xlsx is more interesting than "old" Excel files and it should be easier to implement.

True. I'll put the XLS module on the back-burner for now. If I have extra time at the end I will consider writing my own PHP BIFF library, and using that instead.
