* A fair number of fixes to PDO and its drivers
* New OCI8 that fixes large number of bugs backported from head.
* A final fix for Apache 2 crash when SSI includes are being used.
* A number of crash fixes in extensions and core components.
* XMLwriter & Hash extensions were added and enabled by default.
