Hi,
BIND9 has finally removed the long-deprecated T_A, T_MX result type symbols from the BIND4 era. checkdnsrr() in ext/standard/dns.c still relies on them, however, so at the moment PHP 4.3.4 doesn't build on a BIND9 system like Mac OS X 10.3 Panther.
I run into the same problem (OS X 10.3). the following patch would fix it quick&dirty ;)
Index: dns.c =================================================================== RCS file: /repository/php-src/ext/standard/dns.c,v retrieving revision 1.63 diff -u -r1.63 dns.c --- dns.c 26 Sep 2003 08:09:55 -0000 1.63 +++ dns.c 17 Oct 2003 15:53:59 -0000 @@ -56,6 +56,9 @@ #undef T_UNSPEC #endif #if HAVE_ARPA_NAMESER_H +#ifndef T_A +#define BIND_8_COMPAT 1 +#endif #include <arpa/nameser.h> #endif #if HAVE_RESOLV_H
shall I commit it? or should we even define BIND_8_COMPAT always?

Some possible solutions:
1. Define BIND_8_COMPAT to force the bind 9 nameser.h to include a compatibility file with these symbols.
2. Switch to the new naming (T_A -> ns_t_a, T_MX, ns_t_mx etc) and define aliases to the old ones if the new ones are not defined (ie. on a BIND4 or earlier system).
Derick seems to favour the latter approach.
Thanks, mk
