This gave me a very silly idea (or not?): Release a PHP 4.9 version or something like that! And here's what it looks like: It is a complete PHP 5.1 in disguise plus a parallel installtion of the latest true PHP 4 branch. The 5.1 code is active by default and people are forced to switch to the other codebase by activating a compatibility switch which is called crappy_old_code_you_should_not_use_compatibility = on This way a lot of people will finally get a PHP5 on their machine since a lot of hosters don't switch to PHP5 but they keep their PHP4 installation on the latest release. The name of the switch in combination with the 9 in the release number will finally make clear to people that they should better fix stuff instead of sticking to old versions _and_ that there probably won't be any new PHP4 versions.
