This will just kill PEAR and most of available libraries on PEAR forge.
Yes they are still some use of them
Yes keeping PHP 4 for PEAR is a bad idea
Maybe this would spur PEAR to moving to a modern PHP, they could always maintain
a separate PEAR legacy. PHP 4 support ended some 6 years ago.
PEAR is not a single organisation who can mass update all the modules;
the guidelines could be updated, if they haven't been already, but there
would still be a whole repository full of libraries which used this.
Now, whether that's acceptable or not, I don't know, but it does
highlight the size of the compatibility break.
