how about this. We edit php_config.h to be version 4.4.8pl1. Then

Uh, no. We didn't promise we wouldn't make releases. It clearly says
that if there are security issues we look at them case-by-case to see if
we should make a release. There are security issues, we make a release.
There is nothing more to discuss about this.
We did actually. The exact text from the announcement was:
After 2007-12-31 there will be no more releases of PHP 4.4. We will
continue to make critical security fixes available on a case-by-case
basis until 2008-08-08.
The two statements do contradict each other a little bit, and I am ok
with another release, but technically Marcus is correct.
