The 5.2 series has released 5.2.13 and the following security issues 
were fixed in 5.2.13.
        *  Fixed safe_mode validation inside tempnam() when the 
directory path does not end with a /). (Martin Jansen)
     * Fixed a possible open_basedir/safe_mode bypass in session 
extension identified by Grzegorz Stachowiak. (Ilia)
     * Improved LCG entropy. (Rasmus, Samy Kamkar)

There are a two or three repo's with 5.2.  I wonder if CentOS overhead 
should be conserved or allocated elsewhere (not an advocate, just a 
question).
