There were some discussions about this and the consensus was that it's OK (if 
the API doesn't change, of course). E.g. if package Foo version 1.2.3 was 
depending on PHP 4.3+ it is OK to release Foo version 1.3 depending on PHP 5.4+ 
as long as it doesn't break the package for those already running it on PHP 5.4+
