You must be able to edit httpd.conf to enable PHP module anyway. Refer to
INSTALL file in source dist and PHP Manual.
If you are using RedHat, Apache supports DSO by default.

Install apache-devel package.

It is not dangerous if you know what is going on. Save copy of httpd.conf and
other configuration related files before you type "make install" just in case.
If you aren't familer with Apache/PHP, I suggest to try it on your spare
machine. Apache supports RedHat file layout, but it is not the same AFAIK. Refer
to Apache Manual and INSTALL instruction for detals.
Since some of RPM depends on Apahce, you might consider to install Apache to
default location.
