Correct - I've managed to make it run with fcgi (Apache2). Then Gentoo
for example has this CONCURRENTPHP USE flag (which didn't work for me,
but is supposed to work), I've also had both modules (in different
Apaches with mod_proxy) on FreeBSD.
It's doable, but not so pretty.
I'd argue that it's very easy to do (via fast-cgi) and the only option
to run PHP anyway, if you are concerned about security. Especially with
lighttpd this takes merely minutes to support this.
I don't run php5, but I do run a separate php interpreter per
"customer", each with their own php.ini.
Once you have this setup up and running it's pretty sexy imo.
