Description

Documentation claims that Log4php supports PHP v5.2. The simplest example in quickstart works for v5.3, but fails for v5.2.26:
Fatal error: Call to a member function close() on a non-object in ~PEAR/log4php/Logger.php on line 302

Further, your unit testing section at http://wiki.apache.org/logging-log4php/WritingTests uses phpunit, which requires PHP v5.2.27+
This implies that you are not testing older versions of PHP, unless you've built a legacy test harness.
