This is not a solution or a concrete explanation, but...
I did read some where (a forum on php.net I think, it was july last
year) that PHP didn't like working with Apache 2.2 as a shared module.
I found this out when I tried to compile PHP5 for apache 2.2 on Fedora
Core 4. The solution to this was to compile PHP-4.4.3 and use it with
Apache 1.3. I found that both Mapserver and Apache worked well
(efficiently - as this was for benchmarking purposes) when some tweaking
was done.
As i said not a solution or full explanation, just another user
experience and maybe something to help further investigation

When trying to install php either version 4.4.3 or 5.1.4 i get the
following error after a make install:
chmod 755 /var/www/modules/libphp5.so
chmod: cannot access `/var/www/modules/libphp5.so': No such file or
directory
apxs:Error: Command failed with rc=65536
I have seen lots of other people getting this error but never any
solutions. so any help would be great.
Ok i was able to find the solution in a different thread. for some
reason the php source file: php-4.4.3.tar.gz doest not seem to work
with mapserver and postgreSQL at the same time. I found this also to
be true with all of the PHP version 5+ sources. The only source that
seems to work with all the libraries and tools needed for Mapserver is
php-4.4.3.tar.bz2
if anyone has any reasoning as to why that is i would be really
interested in knowing. Also i am running Fedor Core 5 and Apache 2.2
and i have the same problem on my Suse 10.1 system with Apache 2.2
