Actually the bitbucket branch has more features (image formats support and a couple of handy features like autocroping and the likes). 5.5 will bring both in sync and will use bundled versions when php is built against an older version. But this bug is a binary incompatibility with the external lib, my mistake while adding a long awaited feature. To restore the binary compatibility will require some re-factoring, 5.5 final should have it and the other branches will follow shortly after.
