A little misunderstanding. By "regular" I actually meant PHP installed as an Apache module. Don't actually no anybody or any reason to run it as cgi.

Just experimented with Elgg. Here it is: http://elgg.zzz.ee/index.php Nothing special needed. Just a regular Apache, MySQL, and PHP. 5...10 minute install from FreBSD ports. Port: elgg-0.9.1 Path: /usr/ports/www/elgg Info: Blogging and social networking platform make make install create database and it starts like any other PHP/SQL application...

Curious: what software and why? The only valid reason is that the sofware writes php_value/php_flag options to .htaccess files. This has many other implications and I would carefully examine the software and all other websoftware I have installed, before allowing this. The software is elgg.org, it is social software, i'm working on a project for a world of warcraft guild (yes this is a money deal), they are looking for a facebookish type site with some custom world of warcraft stuff done. I haven't really looked too much at the software yet although I'm going to. This is going to be on a dedicated server, not doing anything else.

Gary: If you want to configure things differntly to the compiled default of a package, then you probably should be using ports instead of packages.
