I think it's consensus at least of the doc team (but maybe I'm wrong). Everyone wants to install PHP in a single directory which allows you to install multiple PHP versions on one machine, easily update PHP and not mess non-PHP directories. Nowadays, it seems that this is not possible at least with some configurations. I believe it is better to try changing the PHP itself than documenting current behavior. The only question is if this is possible and if it is the right time now (because RC stage of PHP5). > However, if you want to run PHP as an Apache module rather than as cgi, the > situation changes.

What I am saying is that no application should be installed like that so we should rather try to change the installation process than documenting it. Jakub Vrana
