PHP 5.3.8 Released!

PHP 5.3.8 Released!:

The PHP development team would like to announce the immediate
availability of PHP 5.3.8. This release fixes two issues introduced in
the PHP 5.3.7 release:

• Fixed bug #55439 (crypt() returns only the salt for MD5)


• Reverted a change in timeout handling restoring PHP 5.3.6 behavior,
  which caused mysqlnd SSL connections to hang (Bug #55283).

All PHP users should note that the PHP 5.2 series is NOT supported
anymore. All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to PHP 5.3.8.

For a full list of changes in PHP 5.3.8, see the ChangeLog. For source downloads please
visit our downloads page, Windows binaries
can be found on windows.php.net/download/.
