 Travis CI have announced they are going to switch to Trusty as the default

 Incoming patch will allow us to continue having PHP 5.2 and 5.3 Travis CI
 jobs until September 2017

 ----

 The current availability of PHP 5.2 and 5.3 in the Travis CI build
 environment is the following:

 1.  `dist: precise` with `sudo: false`
 2.    `dist: trusty` with `sudo: false`
 3.    `dist: precise` with `sudo: false`
 4.    `dist: precise` with `sudo: required`

 WordPress' current Travis CI config uses option `1` above
 Travis CI will override this configuration with option `2` come July 18th
 2017
 Workaround this issue for PHP 5.2 & 5.3 until September 2017 using option
 `3` for the PHP 5.2 and 5.3 Travis CI jobs
 Come September 2017 Travis CI will overwrite option `3` above with option
 `4`

 I've created the following Travis CI issue on the subject:

Comment:

 As just discussed in Slack, this will need backport to ''all the
 branches'' or builds will start failing.  Milestoning in 4.8.1 because we
 are already in that release cycle.  I'll commit to trunk in a few minutes.
