The secondary problem is that we are not doing a good job running our tests prior to releases. I think this is mostly because we have way too many tests that fail and one more or less failing test gets lost in the noise.
Yes, this is a problem: here http://gcov.php.net/viewer.php?version=PHP_5_4&func=tests we have 218 failing tests. Unit test system with this amount of failures is next to useless. So if we have some component that is buggy (like DateTime) or not updated - we need to figure out a way to separate tests that we know would fail (XFAIL?) from tests that should not fail and not release a version until the second number is 0. Otherwise we get broken releases.
