Before the fix for bug 48289 has been applied, the algorithm to
construct a Q-encoded-word has been optimistic, i.e. try to encode as
many bytes that *may* fit in the remaining space, calculate the actual
length of the Q-encoded word, and if it's too long, try again with a
reduced size. However, the fix for the mentioned bug replaced this by
a pessimistic algorithm, which always terminates[1] the for loop[2]
during the first iteration (which renders the following 3 lines as dead
code), and as such easily produces unnecessarily short encoded-words.
Instead the proper fix for the bug would have been to make sure that
`out_size` is always decremented, if the space isn't sufficient for the
encoded-word.

??= is a trigraph for #, so it needs to be escaped. To stay
consistent I'm escaping all question marks in this literal, even
though one of the latter two would suffice.
Basically, the algorithm to append a converted string to an existing
`smart_str` works by increasing the `smart_str` buffer, to let `iconv`
convert characters until there is no more space, to set the new length
of the `smart_str` and to repeat until there is no more input.
Formerly, the new length calculation has been wrong, though, since we
would have to take the old `out_len` into account (`buf_growth -
old_out_len - out_len`). However, since there is no need to take the
old `out_len` into account when increasing the `smart_str` buffer, we
can simplify the fix, avoiding an additional variable.
We must not ignore erroneous characters in mime headers, but rather let
iconv_mime_decode() fail in this case, issuing the usual notice
regarding illegal characters.
We have to cater to the possibility that `=?` is not the start of an
encoded-word, but rather a literal `=?`. If a line break is found
while we're still looking for the charset, we can safely assume that
it's a literal `=?`, and act accordingly.
If we're expecting the start of an encoded word (`=?`), but instead of
the question mark get a line break (CR or LF), we must not append it to
the `pretval`.
The minimum length of an encoded-word is actually the pure encoding
overhead plus the length of the `output-charset` plus the minimum unit
of encoded text, which is 4 for B-encoding and (for simplicity) 3 for
Q-encoding. We also cater to the possibility that we need further
encoded words, which would be split by the `line-break-chars` followed
by a space character. Obviously, the former `out_charset_len + 12` is
too simplistic and wrong in the given case (where the magic number
would be 13).
These simplifications are somewhat wasteful, but iconv_mime_encode()
with Q-encoding is wasteful anyway (see bug 66828[1]), and the proper
solution to convert the whole input to the desired output charset
upfront, and applying the encoding afterwards appears too much a change
for the stable releases.

Autoconf 2.50 released in 2001 made several macros obsolete including
the AC_TRY_RUN, AC_TRY_COMPILE and AC_TRY_LINK:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autoconf.git/tree/ChangeLog.2
These macros should be replaced with the current AC_FOO_IFELSE instead:
- AC_TRY_RUN with AC_RUN_IFELSE and AC_LANG_SOURCE
- AC_TRY_LINK with AC_LINK_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM
- AC_TRY_COMPILE with AC_COMPILE_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM
PHP 5.4 to 7.1 require Autoconf 2.59+ version, PHP 7.2 and above require
2.64+ version, and the PHP 7.2 phpize script requires 2.59+ version which
are all greater than above mentioned 2.50 version therefore systems
should be well supported by now.
This patch was created with the help of autoupdate script:
autoupdate <file>

The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.
In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.
This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
zval_dtor() doesn't make a lot of sense in PHP-7.* and it's used incorrectly in some places.
Its occurances should be replaced by zval_ptr_dtor() or zval_ptr_dtor_nogc(), or even more specialized destructors.
PHP requires integer typehints to be written "int" and does not
allow "integer" as an alias. This changes type error messages to
match the actual type name and avoids confusing messages like
"must be of the type integer, integer given".
If this does not break the Unix system somehow, I'll be amazed. This should get most of it out, apologies for any errors this may cause on non-Windows ends which I cannot test atm.
This only involves switching zval_dtor to zval_ptr_dtor for arrays
and making the convert_to_object for arrays a bit more generic.
All the other changes outside zend_operators.c just make use of
this new ability (use COPY instead of DUP).
What's still missing: Proper references handling. I've seen many
convert_to* calls that will break when a reference is used.
Also fixes bug #69788.
