Seems you haven't learned the value of the other releases (testing,
unstable). Sure, "stable" is behind and will always be. It's goal is
not to provide you with the latest version of applications, but rather a
combination of application versions that have been thoroughly tested and
proven to work in unison. There are newer version of the packages in
testing or unstable, some are under a different name (exim v4 is exim4,
apache v2 is apache2). The point being that the version of software in
stable are older yes, but there are newer version in the archive.

There are issues with php under Apache 2. For more information on this,
search the archives. This link may help:
