I know what you mean. But we're not actually trying to crack anything-
we just want to know if php can process the image so far as to
understand the text. Ways around it aren't what is interesting us.
The idea came up because apparently there are photo-organising tools
available that can parse an image and add a tag based upon who is in
it.
in short it is possible to the extent that the givne captcha image is weak
enough to allow programmatic interpretation
to do it with any speed will obviously require an extension like imageMagick to
do the grunt work and possibly even a custom lib to do the analysis.
