I can confirm this bug. It seems to introduce a backward incompatibility and it seems not to be properly documented in the changelog.

Looks like trying to fix bug #53437 (Crash when using unserialized DatePeriod instance) generated this issue. (https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53437)

Looks like this never actually worked[1], so it can't have been introduced by a bugfix…

It looks like this was introduced in 5.3.27 / 5.4.17 when fixing bug 53437 (https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/0ee71557ffd285552659b6aa37ea236e3bad493f)
