It's "This is not a final release, and it does have known issues,
including a crash bug". But it can be used with PHP 7.2 to start
upgrading applications.
Ok, I'll create the issue in the Bugzilla and let the maintainer decide.

Hi guys.
Some time ago PHP 7.2 was released. To start working with it I was
needed XDebug and it was released in "alpha" version: https://xdebug.org/
Is there any policy against version bumps for "alpha" versions or I can
create the issue about dev-php/xdebug bump in the Bugzilla?
It's up to the maintainer... we have no policy against it, but you don't
want to commit broken/untested packages to the tree obviously.
If the xdebug alpha is "we added php-7.2 support but haven't tested it
yet", then feel free to submit a normal version bump. On the other hand,
if it's "this new alpha version happens to support php-7.2 but also has
new features that might eat your server," then it would be better to add
it alongside a package.mask entry that says "masked for testing" or
something like that.
