hiya,

for future reference please use the official point of contact for the package 
(the Maintainer field, who is now cc'd) for questions about the package.

because the php codebase is full of holes, and the suhosin patch offers 
additional protection that can help mitigate some of these problems from 
being "remote code execution" to only "application crash".  therefore we have 
no interest in maintaining an unpatched version.
