I have a vague recollection of issues, but since there's little
specific detail on this (as it pertains to PHP) publicly it's
impossible for most of us to assess what the problem may be. It's even
stranger to see a secret security report being RFC'd publicly, with
the attendant discussions on list, which appears to go against
responsible disclosure if one can put two and two together in a Eureka
moment. It just spreads a lot of doubt and confusion to no end.
