"the very first time make is run", "some script prompted me"... Huh. Are you
sure that it's PHP *3*, not PHP/FI *2* ??? PHP 3 use standard autoconf stuff
and there are no scripts to ask about databases (you could use configure
script switches instead)...

It works here even without mysql installed at all :-)) Are you sure that it's
PHP *3*, not PHP/FI *2* ?
