php 5.5 deprecated mysql (for mysqli) and also the /e option in preg_replace.
vB 3.8.8 was actually modified for the first change (if you have mysql set, and are running php5.5+, it will silently switch to using mysqli anyway).
As far as preg_replace is concerned, all 5.5 does is generate DEPRECATED warnings, if you disable php error reporting, you will probably be able to run ok.
JFYI, vB4 is currently being updated for php 5.5 (updating all the affected preg_replace calls). After that I hope to migrate the changes to vB3.
