title: Update PHP within XAMPP on MAC OSX
body: <p>I've searched a few forums already and I haven't found a definitve answer. I'm aware that the XAMPP development for MAC OSX has been suspended, however I was hoping someone could outline the steps involved or point me to some other resources.</p>
  
  <p>I'm currently using OSX 10.6.8, XAMPP 1.7.3, and PHP 5.3.1.</p>
  
  <p>I guess this question should also expand to the updating of other components like phpmyadmin and mysql.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you in advance!</p>
