Hm, my mistake then. My mind wasn't working in natural order mode; if
it said "0.07" (with the extra leading zero), then it would have been
clearer that 0.23 is much newer. But I understand PHP isn't responsible
for the versioning scheme other projects use.
What do you mean by changing it to inline text?

That info is correct afaict.
Do note that 0.23 is heckofalot newer then 0.7.
Thats a very very old note as you can see.
Rather the being such a explicit note it probably should be changed to
inline text though

Description:
------------
The "Requirements" page for the xdiff extension say that version 0.7 is
required for those functions to be aware of memory_limit. However, the
latest version offered on xdiff's homepage
(http://www.xmailserver.org/xdiff-lib.html) and Freshmeat page
(http://freshmeat.net/projects/xdiff-lib) is 0.23.
Reproduce code:
---------------
Go to http://www.php.net/manual/en/xdiff.requirements.php
and read,
"Note: You'll need at least libxdiff 0.7 for these functions to be aware
of memory_limit."
Expected result:
----------------
libxdiff 0.7 to exist.
Actual result:
--------------
Latest version available is 0.23.
