After 1.9.1, cannot start any PHP-FPM version older than 8.3

We have a few legacy sites which need older versions of PHP and the FPM services for older versions die with:

[05-Feb-2025 14:44:34] ALERT: [pool www] the process manager is missing (static, dynamic or ondemand)
[05-Feb-2025 14:44:34] ERROR: failed to post process the configuration
[05-Feb-2025 14:44:34] ERROR: FPM initialization failed

Yes, the dummy.conf is broken.
You have to add to all dummy.conf something like:
pm = ondemand
pm.max_children =1
pm.max_requests = 4000
pm.process_idle_timeout = 10s

Ofcourse this doesn’t fix all the rest that this update broke…
