There is already proposed package for RHL9 which has one publish vote. 
FC1 package is missing two patches which are already provided in 
bugzilla.  If you have either of these systems and run php, I suggest 
you take a look and try them out.

It is not yet certain to what extent RHL73 issues will be fixed. 
There may not even be any, at least Debian stable is not intending to 
release fixes, and there aren't yet any for RHEL21 either.  So, it 
seems to be the safest bet to just skip RHL73 updates for now.
