- ATTENTION! "make install" will *by default* install the CLI SAPI binary in
{PREFIX}/bin/php. If you don't disable the CGI binary, it will be
installed as {PREFIX}/bin/php-cgi.

- Fixed bug #19366 (gdImageFill crashes when x & y are outside of
the image's boundries). (Ilia)
- Fixed bug #13936 (__FILE__ constant didn't contain full path). (Ilia)
- Renamed:
socket_set_timeout() -> stream_set_timeout()
socket_set_blocking() -> stream_set_blocking()
set_file_buffer() -> stream_set_write_buffer()
socket_get_status() -> stream_get_meta_data()
As these functions can (in theory) work on any type of stream. (Wez)
- Added stream_context_create(), stream_context_set_params() and
stream_context_set_option and added an optional fourth parameter to
fopen() which accepts a stream context. Contexts allow sharing of
information between streams (a kind of "session") and setting notification
callbacks. (Wez)
- Added stream_filter_prepend() and stream_filter_append() which apply
a filter to either the top or the bottom of the filter stack for a stream.
Implemented "string.rot13" filter as an example; more filters are expected
to follow in later releases and other extensions. (Wez)
- Added stream_select() which works like socket_select but works on streams
returned by fopen(), fsockopen() and pfsockopen() instead. (Wez)
- PHP now has a new stream system that allows it to do some clever stuff with
fopen() and fsockopen(). As a result:
. URL wrappers natively supports https:// URLs if you have compiled
OpenSSL support into PHP (shared extension does not support this).
. Added support for fopen("ftps://...", ...) which allows to connect to FTP
servers via SSL. (Stefan Esser)
. fsockopen() adds support for ssl:// and tls:// connections via TCP/IP
. copy($srcfilename, $destfilename) can now be used with URL wrappers
. zlib wrappers/streams can be used even on systems without fopencookie()
. Changed 'zlib:' fopen wrapper to 'compress.zlib://' and deprecate
'zlib:' to avoid ambiguities when filenames have ':' characters. (Wez)
. Added 'compress.bzip2://' stream and wrapper support.
. Added user-space streams - it is now possible to define a class in PHP
code and register it as a URL wrapper. (stream_register_wrapper)
. Most extensions now support streams when passing files, which means
that those extensions will now also support URL wrappers. (Wez)
. Added URL-wrapper support to exif. (Marcus)
