I’ve checked that all [0] packages with a failing testsuite using PHP 
8.1 from experimental [1] have now a bug (severity important, blocking 
the current one) about this issue.

0: *except*
   - php-horde* packages (Mike and team CCed);
   - packages not in testing (shouldn’t be a blocker);
   - packages already fixed (come on, refresh! ;).

1: 
https://release.debian.org/britney/pseudo-excuses-experimental.html#php-defaults

For Horde packages, Paul already noticed many errors are “just” PHP 
deprecations, so using “Restrictions: allow-stderr” in d/t/control 
should at least allow to go one step further, even if we’re just hiding 
issues under the carpet for now.

(keeping that part to inform Horde maintainers in the mean time).
