4) removal of php4 constructors not yet voted/accepted (there is a
heated ongoing debate as we 
never deprecated it).
5) the current status is that we won't remove the ability to call
functions statically without marked as 
static, we will just won't "assume" $this from the caller context.

Things to fix:
1. new-by-reference: &new
2. magic quotes 
3. ereg functions
4. constructor names; we have to use __construct()
5. mark static methods as static

Description:
------------
there are a couple of BC breaks in the current php-src 
master(which will be PHP 7.0) which causes make install to fail 
when installing pear.
I've started working on a Pull Request against pear-core with the 
necessary changes to make it compatible with PHP 7.0, I will drop 
a comment when it is ready to be merged.
