I just reviewed phpdoc (although I'm not a release-manager or
-assistent, and have a few remarks:

This inflates the diff by a great deal, you're now shipping tons of
autogenerated functions.xml files. Also this change is not listed in the
changelog.

But you don't build-depend on autoconf, this is not going to work. And
indeed, pbuilder says:

| make: autoconf: Command not found
| make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 127
| pbuilder: Failed autobuilding of package

Third and last remark, since this is a documentation package, why didn't
you upgrade this to the latest version? That'd seem really useful to me.

Since the package is orphaned and now ITA'd by you, you should probably
also set the Maintainer: address properly to yourself, thereby formally
adopting the package (I assume that this didn't happen because the
package sat with your sponsor before it was indeed orphaned, so this is
of course nobody's fault really).
