All the backported fixes are bugs which make the package more stable.
It fixes real issues we have in php5.4.

We are indeed trying to follow the php minor versions which are
released weeks after weeks including fixes for stability. I'm deeply
concerned about php stability as you may understand with my different
packages requests; my contributions are here to fix real issues users
get.
I don't want to be rude but all the previous packages requests for php
ended up with the same kind of question/answers; I also find weird to
get patch validations from people who don't read/use php source code
regularly.

Best regards,
