Migration issues for instance - we have quite a bit of code that uses
sablotron - in PHP5 that's been changed to libxslt, which requires
extensive code-changes. 

Also, something about setlocale() got regressed (and never fixed) in
4.3.10 or thereabouts, which means we have at least one app that's
running on 4.3.8. 

Finally - why migrate? What's the rush?  Lots of people are still
running back-level software - e.g. apache, mysql, php, gcc, linux, you
name it.  In our shop, migrating working PHP code has one of the lowest
priorities.
