Hi,

PHP 5.2.4 has been released three weeks ago, but still is not available for
FreeBSD (5.2.3 is the latest portversion)

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=116182

According to the above pr, "PHP 5 versions before 5.2.4 have numerous
security vulnerabilities" that have been addressed with the latest version.
 I've heared that the cause of the delay is the lack of a compatible Suhosin
patch. Same happened months ago with a previous php5 release. If this is the
reason of delay, then please split the port in two new ones, with and
without Suhosin.

 Any idea when the updated php5 port will be released?

Ted
