Earlier this month the PHP dev team released 4.4.8 a security/ stability patch, supposedly the last patch of the 4 branch*. I was pretty surprised, as to my knowledge official support of version 4 had finished as of 2007. I’ve always commended the PHP dev team on their ongoing support for PHP 4 since so many apps and shared hosts still support PHP 4, but as developers we must move on, familiarity breeds content as they say, so if your thinking of updating to 4.8.8 I strongly recommend you GoPHP5.
