The GoPHP5.org project is part way there, I think. :-)  It's not a "works 
with" but a "works only with", but still any project listed there is rather 
assumed to be PHP 5-friendly.

I hate to volunteer myself for more work, but is there some way that GoPHP5 
could help make that transition easier?  (We can host upgrade guides written 
by others too, I suspect.)
