There are 2 left at this point:

1) http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=27792

I know we have been talking about LFS since ages (just as we have been  
talking about expanding the storage limit for integers). But I would  
not consider this a bug let alone critical. Its a missing feature,  
that we all agree should be provided. However I do not see why this is  
critical for PHP 5.3 .. or am I missing something

2) http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=44936

Last comment was on September 8th, where Stas asked what the exact BC  
issue was .. I imagine the issue is that this causes issues in  
situation where the value is being compared to some non PHP source  
(like a configuration file).
