If it were me (which, of course, it isn't, but...), I'd leave the cgi as php
and call the command-line version phpc.

(Well, actually, if it were *just* me, I'd leave them both as php -- even on
Windows -- and just make sure I had them in appropriate directories, but I'm
extremely aware that real-world users are often not up to that kind of
subtlety.)

What I absolutely would *not* do is rename the cgi version to php-cgi whilst
*simultaneously* introducing a new php with a different purpose.  If I were
going to do this, I'd want to do it in steps: 1 - cgi to php-cgi + introduce
php-cli (so any installations still looking for php get a straight file not
found); 2 - php-cli to php.  As I'm pretty sure this isn't going to fly,
let's go back to my first para...!!

Cheers!

Mike
