Re: PHP upgrades

All of these are source files ;) So just run patch here in this dir, as the manual of patch suggests. BTW please also file a bug report at http://bugs.php.net/ that a documentation for *patching* older versions is needed in the PHP Manual. Sometime, someone will pick up that bug report, and will write some simple instructions.
