Hi, I've never used this project before. I accidentally insted the php5-gdcm package on my ubuntu server (stupidly used php5-gd*). I would never have know except that suddenly one of my websites broke, because this package leaks a function new_image() into the global space OF ALL PHP CODE regardless of whether it interacts with your project or no.

After removing the php5-gdcm package, my sites started working again. I just thought I'd do the decent thing and point this out and I presume this is unintended behaviour.

    well PHP binding were removed from debian. That should close the issue.
