Actually, I've been using the non-cgi version on and off in non-production
settings for some time. Sascha Schumann developed the SAPI module that connects
the PHP engine to AOLserver and he has told me on more than one occasion that it
is not stable.
The impression I have from him is that the instability is due more to
non-thread-safe PHP modules than to the PHP engine itself. I suspect that if
you could load or compile in only thread-safe modules to PHP it would be OK.
I just checked the PHP web site and one of the enhancements to 4.0.5 is supposed
to be improved thread-safety. Maybe things are better now.
As of late releases of 4.0.4 there were still several defects in the SAPI
support under AOLserver, notably the absence or incorectness of several PHP
variables ($SERVER_NAME just to name one).
