This is the information I got from Redhat. And PHP 5.4 is part of it.


Red Hat Software Collections 1.0 Beta Now Available
June 5, 2013

Helps Users Build and Deploy Web Applications Through Dynamic  
Languages and Databases

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Team

Red Hat is pleased to announce the Beta release of Red Hat Software  
Collections 1.0. Red Hat Software Collections 1.0 delivers the latest,  
stable versions of some of the most popular web development languages  
and open source databases for use with Red Hat Enterprise Linux. It  
features a three-year life cycle and is the first in a series of  
planned releases designed to allow developers to take advantage of new  
capabilities faster as they build and deploy modern, enterprise-ready  
web applications.

The success of today’s enterprise is dependent upon developers’  
ability to remain agile, flexible and ready to incorporate new  
technologies, even as they take on additional responsibilities as new  
roles like DevOps emerge and evolve. With Red Hat Software  
Collections, developers can build and deploy applications on Red Hat  
Enterprise Linux with the confidence that their efforts will be backed  
by long-term support. In addition, Red Hat plans a frequent release  
cadence for Red Hat Software Collections, providing developers with  
updated runtime components on which they can create new features and  
capabilities.

Red Hat Software Collections 1.0 Beta includes access to the latest  
stable versions of the following dynamic languages:

     Ruby 1.9.3 with Rails 3.2.8, which delivers substantial  
performance improvements for web-based applications. This results in  
faster load times, improved unicode support and threading, and a large  
collection of ruby gems.
     Python version 2.7, which includes new unit test features, faster  
I/O, and tools and back-ported features from Python 3 to make future  
migration easier.
     Python version 3.3, which offers significant improvements in  
language consistency, Unicode performance, imports, and distribution  
of packages.
     PHP version 5.4, which includes new language syntax, improved  
performance and reduced memory consumption, and a built-in web server  
in CLI mode to simplify development workflows and testing.
     Perl version 5.16.3, which includes improved unicode support,  
performance enhancements, new debugging options, enhanced security,  
and a number of new and updated modules.
     Technology Preview of node.js version 0.10, which delivers an  
easy to use module for handling streams, better error handling with  
domains, and performance improvements for web application development.

Red Hat Software Collections 1.0 Beta also includes access to the  
latest stable versions of the following runtime databases:

     MariaDB version 5.5, which introduces an easy-to-adopt  
alternative for MySQL for Red Hat Enterprise Linux users. Binary  
compatibility allows MySQL users to drop-in MariaDB without converting  
data files.
     MySQL version 5.5, which offers performance, scalability, and  
usability enhancements.
     PostgreSQL version 9.2, which includes native JSON support,  
covering indexes, and significant improvements in replication, high  
availability and performance.

Red Hat Software Collections 1.0 Beta is available now for use with  
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 to customers and partners with select  
active Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux  
Workstation or developer-related subscriptions.

Active subscribers who are interested in participating can access Red  
Hat Software Collections 1.0 Beta on Red Hat Network. View the Red Hat  
Software Collections 1.0 Beta release notes for more information.
