I already discussed the possibility of retiring the trusty build
environment to reduce project maintenance. Maybw now is the time to do it.
That said, I would really like to get input from someone else who uses php
regularly. @Jens-G perhaps... to ensure this change is acceptable (removing
php5 support). I haven't seen any objections in the developer email list but
it hasn't been expressly mentioned.---
