Please note that I was not referring to abandoning php4, but creating a 
new branch for php5 devs so that they are segregated from the rest. 
Whether ultimately you decide to merge this branch back into trunk or 
make a separate release for php5 is up to you.  But I definitely think 
php5 stuff should be isolated from php4 rather than intertwining code to 
accommodate the two (unless there’s a better approach to have the two 
coexisting in peace?).

(That being said, IMHO providers would probably not be as lazy if all 
the code providers were indeed to drop PHP4 support.  As Marc-Étienne 
pointed out, PHP4 is EOL since 2007, and PHP5 was first released in 2004)
