[oi-dev] obsoleting php 5.2 in hipster

[Alexander Pyhalov]

I was looking at different php packages.
It seems that currently php-idn upstream is dead.
There are several patches (for example, used in Fedora) which allow it 
to be built with php 5.4.

However, some icu functions were moved to intl PHP extension. To enable 
this extension we need to recompile icu with G++.

This is C++ library, so it will certainly have incompatible ABI. 
However, it seems that this library does not have consumers in our 
repositories. !!!! So, we can deliver it in /usr.
Any objections/ suggestions?
