you still don't get it

Debian has a policy to not change the version number for most software 
but only backport security and critical bugfixes, not only for samba

PHP Version 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.28

do you really think this is just plain PHP 5.3.2?
no it is not - it was built on Oct 29 2014 11:55:11 with recent 
backported fixes while 5.3.2 was released on 04 Mar 2010
