CVE fixes is no reason for bumping to a masked version of PHP. Please do not even consider that. 

Since the change between rc3 and rc4 were rather minor, I do not plan on releasing rc4 and rather wait the last few days left before final has been released. 5.3.7 final is scheduled for Thursday, and as usual, should be in Portage a few days later.
