-  the debian php packages now support a modular configuration layout.
+  in addition to this new upstream release, we are now moving towards
+  having the suhosin patch (http://www.hardened-php.net/suhosin/index.html)
+  enabled by default.  we're not yet ready to enable it, but the packages
+  can be built with the patch enabled with very little effort.  if you
+  are interested in trying this out, just do:
 
-  if you have previously installed modules that have put entries in
-  your php.ini file, you will probably be getting various warning
-  messages about duplicate modules if you have error reporting enabled
-  with a mask including E_WARN.
+  apt-get install build-essential fakeroot
+  apt-get build-dep php5
+  cd php5-5.2.3
+  export DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=suhosin
+  dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
 
-  no attempt will be made to muck further with your php.ini file, so you
-  should remove those lines yourself.
+  or something similar, preferably on your development box :)

+  if you try this out, please report successes and/or failures to us at
