Like the one you just committed couple of days ago? REVERT! :)
I merged the patch in question to the PHP_5_1 branch *after* PHP 5.1.0 had been rolled and *before* the release cycle for PHP 5.1.1 was started.

    Then you haven't understood one thing..the release process is not
    something you stop/start in _release_ branches like PHP_5_1 and PHP_4_4.
    It's constant. HEAD is something totally different..

    And we have tried NOT to add new things in release branches, haven't we?
    But it's not a rule per se, small things like this have been allowed in the past.

    After all, usually adding new stuff doesn't break things.. ;)
