Please stabilize the latest dev-lang/php-8.0.30 as it fixes two security issues.

8.0 has been masked now.

So, just like that, version 8.0 is simply dropped?

Version 8.0 is supported until November 26th 2023 (security wise), but it is officially supported by upstream. So, from my point of view, it is not EOL. Likewise, PHP 7.4 should have been removed many months before, back in 2021, but it was just recently masked. I understand that the lack of resources is an issue, but in this case, dropping a still supported version IMHO is not a solution to this problem.

I don't see what we can do about that. We're not gifted with powers of altering reality.

At least the user will be able to run a project with PHP 8.0.
Users are free to unmask it and set USE=-ssl if they want. But there were some projects which hard-required SSL on whatever PHP version they had, which made it more complicated to try retain PHP-without-SSL support.
