No, when you build apache, $ORACLE_HOME doesn't need to be set.  It does 
need to be set when you build PHP, and when you start Apache.

On  Linux, you'd need to add $ORACLE_HOME/lib (the actual path) to your 
/etc/ld.so.conf file, and make sure $ORACLE_HOME is set before you start 
Apache..

For example, my /etc/ld.so.conf file looks something like this:

/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/local/oracle/product/8.1.6/lib

Apache should then start up fine.
