            Bug ID: 203552
           Summary: lang/php5 : php 5.4 has reached EOL (no more security
                    updates) please deprecate for removal
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

According to http://php.net/supported-versions.php :

Active support for php 5.4 ended 14 Sep 2014
Security updates for php 5.4 ended 14 Sep 2015 

As of writing, that was 21 days ago.

The PHP developers categorize PHP 5.4 as "End of Life" which is defined as "A
release that is no longer supported. Users of this release should upgrade as
soon as possible, as they may be exposed to unpatched security
vulnerabilities."

I suggest immediate deprecation with expiration date set for early 2016 (e.g.
Jan 15 or Feb 1)
