There was a long discussion about this on the backports list a while back,
the summary of which I think is that neither PHP upstream nor any of the
Debian packagers want to have anything to do with PHP 4.x and consider it
a security hole, so there was no enthusiasm for doing anything with it for
lenny. I don't know if there's a third-party package somewhere, but it
sounded very unlikely there would be one in any official Debian
repository.
