Erm..
Your code doesn't work with 5.1 and has some problems with 5.0, right?
So maybe it's better to tell them not to use your code?
Or at least to declare officially "THIS CODE WORKS WITH PHP4 ONLY, DON'T
EVEN TRY IT WITH PHP5".
The latter seems to be the best option to me.
Why to blame PHP instead ?

First - I have never used anything other than PHP5 since the release
candidates of 5.0. It is other people who seem to expect my code to work
with PHP4 despite being told it has not been designed to.
A lot of the core stuff has been imported from PHP4 and tidied up or
uses third party packages that are supposed to work with PHP5.
Most of the reference problems introduced by 5.0.5 were tracked to third
party packages ( like ADOdb ) and then need checking against the
applications. Now we are getting complaints about 5.1 but I can not tell
you what the problem is because I will wait for 5.1.1 now myself.
It is supporting ADOdb and other libraries that means I need to be aware
of PHP4 compatibility
( and Pierre I have had no reply to posts about PHPDocumentor but have
posted fixes to people who contacted me direct - there has been no
change to the files section of phpdocumentor since April04 - I need
something more up to date, but it works while Doxygen does not produce
as tidy an output and needs a complete re-write of all comments to use
it :( )
I am not blaming, I am just trying to recover an already difficult
situation which is not being helped by the fact that this is the second
time an 'update' has caused problems. Even though this time people
apparently know what the problems are :(
