Practical experience is that suhosin does not actually work with 5.4?
I've had to disable it because of problems with session handling amongst other 
things and don't have time to investigate why.
Would I prefer to re-enable it - YES - and it's one of a number of reasons that 
have been making switching currently stable PHP5.2 servers over to 5.4 less 
attractive.
The amount of time I'm wasting on coping with many of the so called improvements 
across the whole Linux platform is making me feel that commercial interests are 
actually in control rather than users/developers? Staying with stable platforms 
that we are comfortable with is just not practical :(
