PHP-CLI was experimental so far, so anyone who uses it has to be aware
of any changes that can happen. PHP-CGI is very far from being
experimental. I have no problem with all that renaming thing, but if we
rename the CGI-PHP to php-cgi we should do it with php5, because more
people will realize that a lot of things change between 4.x and 5.x.
For psychological numbering-reasons people don't see any change between
4.2 and 4.3.
