One last comment: I rebuilt the php package (on i386) using the sources in hardy-proposed; as part of its build, php runs a fairly extensive set of regression tests. There are a couple of new failures versus the results (recorded in the security team's qa-regression-testing bzr tree) from 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.3:
Bug #20382 [2] (strtotime ("Monday", $date) produces wrong result on DST changeover) [ext/date/tests/bug20382-2.phpt]
Bug #41567 (json_encode() double conversion is inconsistent with PHP) [ext/json/tests/bug41567.phpt]
microtime() function [ext/standard/tests/time/001.phpt] (warn: system dependent)
None of these looks very serious, but might be worth double-checking. Thanks.
