It looks like version info is currently being fetched from https://secure.php.net/releases/active.php.
Maybe we could add a flag there that indicates the support level?

@nikic I'm afraid that would require something like
branches.inc[1] from web/php, or do we have a service to get the
relevant info?  Scraping the Web page[2] appears to be rather
fragile.

@cmb: It would be nice if there were also some indication in the version dropdown on the reporting
page. E.g. by printing "5.6.38 (Security only)". Or maybe by printing a message next to
the dropdown after an EOL version has been selected.

The note has been added[1] – closing.

Sorry, if listing these old PHP versions without further
clarification is confusing.  We likely should add a note to the
“Don't report bugs about old versions” section on the “How to
Report a Bug” page[1].  Therefore I'm leaving this open for the
time being.  Otherwise this is not a bug.

No, but I wouldn't have bothered to submit a patch if it wasn't listed on the web site, I
do know that it's old.
