Comment (by jorbin):

 I think the approach @dd32 is suggesting is going to be the best route for
 us. Supporting multiple versions of PHPunit is an unfortunate reality, but
 one that will help us not just now but also possibly farther into the
 future. While the ultimate goal of WordPress supporting only the versions
 of PHP that the PHP core team supports (which is the policy in place for
 PHPUnit) is admirable, until hosts are updating PHP versions with more
 regularity, it isn't something that I see becoming a reality any time
 soon.
