PHP has been upgraded to 7.2.10 without any issues. I tried to update OpenSSL to 1.1.0 at the same time, but that particular upgrade seems to have GCC dependencies that I don't want to have to deal with right now. It will probably go in with the next major Slackware release.

I installed the OpenSSL package from Slackware64-current, and compiled Apache and PHP from source to get the latest versions up and running. I also renewed the HTTPD certificate manually, as the auto-renew feature wasn't working properly.
Everything appears to be in good working order after the upgrade.

I've been too busy to post updates lately, but I have updated the site software to Apache 2.4.29 with PHP 7.2.0. I will be checking all of the PHP scripts to ensure that they still work after the jump to a new major release.

I upgraded the web server to the newest version once again.
I also updated the site generation code to change it from XHTML 1.1 compliant to Polyglot HTML5/XHTML5 compliant. This only required a few small changes: some changes to the HTML header and some changes to HTML entities that were not recognized by XML and needed to be converted to Unicode entities.
