Sascha is right...
Allow me to reword..
There is no way to allow a php file author the ability to execute php source during
module startup of a forking web server. The module would have to allocate and
initialize all semaphores before the php source is parsed. This defeats the purpose
of a semaphore extension in a forking webserver environment, becuase the php source
author would be limited to just the semaphors allocated by the php module.
