First, the web server may need to be restarted, though the installer usually
does this.
But it's probably PHP. PHP 5.3 now does not allow (by default) dl() loading of
extensions, so your script that tries to dl('php_mapscript.so') will fail. It
can be enabled, but I can't get this to work in my PHP package. So you need to
add the extension to your php.ini. I just noticed that I missed this bit in my
Mapserver installer, so you need to do it yourself.
Edit /usr/local/php5cgi/lib/php.ini and add this line (there is a "Dynamic
Extensions" section, but it can go anywhere):
extension=php_mapscript.so

The equator is so long, it could encircle the earth completely once.
