Folks:
I'm in the process of installing awf-cms -> http://awf-cms.org. The
install, however, requires mod_php5 which I cannot find with emerge.
Has anyone actually installed mod_php5 on a gentoo system?

Here's the scenario: I have a x86 commerical, close-sourced application
that is linked against x86 ncurses. The system that this program
executes on is amd64. Is there a way I can emerge ncurses so that the
result is two installs, one for x86 and one for amd64?

Build ncurses manually ("ebuild [package] unpack compile install").
Using ldd, find what libs the application needs, locate them in the
