This is just a pretty minor part of what needs to be fixed to support
5.4 (see [1] and subsequent changesets) and there is no support for PHP
5.4 in xcache 1.3.x.

Indeed it did FTBFS, but at least it was clearly broken, what I find
better than making PHP crash on almost anything.

As all upstream patches are targeted for 2.0 release, which does also
change some xcache internals, I doubt it will be easy to backport to
1.3.
