I've been packaging a PHP binary for a while, along with some extensions (as external libraries, not built into PHP), and I'm looking into ways to simplify things. (I don't program anything, just build and package for distribution)

For some reason, I got the impression a long time ago that an extension had to be built for a particular PHP interface (PHP CGI, PHP Apache DSO, ...). So I've been building multiple copies of extensions, one for each PHP interface I build.

So, does anyone know if this is really necessary? Maybe it just depends on the extension? (The one main extension I deal with at one time was particular about the PHP interface because of the regex used in PHP (PHP or system), but I think it deals with that better now.)
