Then how did you get pear to work? Did you downgrade gcc/glibc as well? If
so, then you could have saved yourself a lot of time and just installed
RH7.3... Interesting is that both RedHat and SuSE are now shipping apache2
default, so there's gonna be a whole pile of these threads on this list RSN.
Also, this is not a production machine. It's a laptop. And I'm only running
it as a development/eval environment to keep up with the current technology
(NOTE: no rawhide, alpha or beta stuff, I've grown too old for that). Matter
of fact that's why it's the only machine I got running RH8; to look at gcc,
apache2, and all the other stuff that appears to only have problems with php
;^(
So I would feel pretty silly turning this supposedly current machine into a
slightly-behind-the-times-but-bullet-proof machine. No wait, then I'd be
using debian.

Ok, I need to get serious now. If any of the following are true:
* php will not build from source on stock RH/SuSE
* pear will not function properly on stock RH/SuSE
* php will not build with apxs2
* php will not build wth gcc 3.2 or glibc 2.2
Then it should be made painfully, blatantly obvious at php.net BEFORE these
poor people lose hours/days/weeks trying to find where they messed up --
especially if it is not 'user error', but incompatibilities between different
versions and distros.
This is a recurring thread, can we identify the problem and make sure it's a
FAQ and prominently displayed on the website? Even if it is only a reminder
to me, in case I forget when I check back next month for updates?
