This is a maintenance release that addresses a serious memory corruption
problem within PHP concerning references. If references were used in a wrong
way, PHP would often create memory corruptions which would not always surface
and be visible. The increased middle digit was required because the fix that
corrected the problem with references changed PHP's internal API. PHP 4.4.0
does not have any new features, and is solely a bugfix release.
way, PHP could create memory corruptions which would not always surface or

corrected the problem with references changed PHP's internal API, breaking
binary compatibility with the PHP 4.3.* series. PHP 4.4.0 does not have

recommended that you read the more detailed release announcement
