<title>Moving of <function>utf8_encode</function> and <function>utf8_decode</function></title>
<para>
The <function>utf8_encode</function> and <function>utf8_decode</function>
functions have now been moved to the standard extension as string functions, whereas before
the <link linkend="book.xml">XML</link> extension was required for them to be available.

<title>Changes to <function>mail</function> and <function>mb_send_mail</function></title>

The $additional_headers parameter of <function>mail</function> and
<function>mb_send_mail</function> now also accepts an <type>array</type>
instead of a <type>string</type>.

<title>LMDB support</title>

The <link linkend="book.dba">DBA</link> extension now has support for LMDB.

Unix: Autoconf 2.64 or greater is now required to build PHP.

<listitem>
<simpara>
Unix: <literal>--with-pdo-oci</literal> configure argument no longer needs
the version number of the Oracle Instant Client.

<listitem>
<simpara>
Unix: <literal>--enable-gd-native-ttf</literal> configure argument has been
removed. This was not used since PHP 5.5.0.
</simpara>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<simpara>
Windows: <literal>--with-config-profile</literal> configure argument has been
added. This can be used to save specific configures, much like the magical
<filename>config.nice.bat</filename> file.

<sect2 xml:id="migration72.other-changes.mcrypt">
<title>Moving <link linkend="book.mcrypt">MCrypt</link> to PECL</title>
<para>
The <link linkend="book.mcrypt">MCrypt</link> extension has now been moved
out of the core to PECL. Given the mcrypt library has not seen any updates
since 2007, its usage is highly discouraged. Instead, either the
<link linkend="book.openssl">OpenSSL</link> or <link linkend="book.sodium">Sodium</link>
extension should be used.

<title><function>session_module_name</function></title>
<para>
Passing <literal>"user"</literal> to <function>session_module_name</function>
now raises an error of level <constant>E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR</constant>. Formerly,
this has been silently ignored.
