PHP, an HTML-embedded scripting language with syntax borrowed from C, Java and Perl, with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown in, has been updated to version 5.4.15.

Highlights for PHP 5.4.15:

• debug_backtrace in set_error_handler no longer corrupts zend heap; • dns_get_record result is no longer displayed with a string of length -1; • follow_location parameter of context is no longer ignored for most response codes; • An fd leak has been fixed on Solaris; • libmagic has been updated to version 5.14.

“We weren't trying to pull an April Fool's Day joke in May. A temporary glitch caused the latest distributions of PHP to not properly propagate to the mirror servers. This has been fixed at the root level, and it's now being distributed to all of the mirrorr,” reads the official announcement.

You can check out the official changelog in the readme file incorporated in the source package.
