Can we fake the PHP version
<p>When we use <code>phpinfo()</code> or <code>php -v</code> we are getting the PHP version. </p>

<p>I would like to know whether there is anyway that I can change the displayed version myself like say not on compiling.</p>

<p>But I just want to fake it.</p>

<p>The idea is for my php version is RC 5.4 , but I want composer to install the packages > 5.4 :) .</p>

<p>Anyone have any thoughts on this how I can make it happen? Else I want to download and compile the new PHP 5.4 :) .</p>

<p>Thank you</p>
