I'm not sure if my question was worded vaguely or if this is one of the mysteries of the great uknown. Am I asking this on the right list?
Instead of troubleshooting this issue further is there a configuration option which will force register_globals to be "On" when I compile php? If there is I'll just rebuild and be done with it.
