Bug Description
PHP 7.0 has only recent released and a number of critical security and bug-fixes are present in each 7.0.x. Rather than backporting individual patches (e.g., Bug # 1569509), I believe it makes significantly more sense to follow the upstream 7.0.x. Upstream PHP is demonstrating an improved approach of bugfixes only in 7.0.x:
- 7.0.5: http://
- 7.0.6-RC1: http://

Our php7.0 source package has autopkgtests for the 4 SAPIs, mod-php, cgi, fpm and cli. We do not currently run the source tests during the build itself, as it significantly lengthens the test time. It also requires external configuration of a MySQL server. We could extend our build to run tests, though, if that is deemed necessary (following, e.g.: https:/
I do not believe there is a firm statement from upstream on API/ABI stability, but the general approach seems to be a BC-break would result in 7.1.0.
