Bug#400966: Patch, security



I'm submitting the following patch, result of many corrections thanks to tests 
on all release architectures and kfreebsd-i386.

Seriously, this is an untested patch which I think is quite important to apply 
for Etch. We released Sarge without the PHP version recommended by upstream, 
and thankfully upstream provided security support for PHP 4 up to now, but 
shipping PHP 4 "by default" in Etch doesn't look good, given the state of 
upstream security in general and the time since PHP 4 was replaced. It is too 
late to remove PHP 4 from Etch but I expect it to have inappropriate support 
similar to what happened in woody, so we should avoid making it the default 
version.
Please let me know if you have a reason not to apply this patch.
