   . ZEND_IS_XDIGIT() macro was removed because it was unused and its name
     did not match its actual behavior.
+  . The following zend_string-related legacy aliases were removed:
+    * IS_INTERNED() - use ZSTR_IS_INTERNED()
+    * STR_EMPTY_ALLOC() - use ZSTR_EMPTY_ALLOC()
+    * _STR_HEADER_SIZE - use _ZSTR_HEADER_SIZE
