[mapserver-dev] php-mapscript missing from Ubuntu 16.04 beta?

[Worth Lutz]

I've done more googling and I now see that both 5 and 7 were in the 
beta2 release to keep from breaking too much.

And I see that the final release will be only php7. [1]  This is 
confirmed at the bottom of this issue.

What is needed to get php-mapscript working on php7?
