Re: Textpattern demo sites - stack changes, upgrades, tweaks et cetera
Reverting: Nginx 1.31.2.
Note: Nginx 1.31.3 exploded (no casualties) and requires some further work on my part.

Re: Textpattern demo sites - stack changes, upgrades, tweaks et cetera
Upgraded: PHP 8.6.0 alpha 3.
Upgraded: PHP 8.5.9.
Note: 112 days / 16 weeks until PHP 8.6.0 GA.
Note: substantial savings in compiled php and php-fpm binary size with jackhammer judicious use of strip command. Was: ~69MB; now: ~28MB.
