Midgard doesn't use gd.h; PHP does. Try configuring --without-gd

You need gd-devel too if you want to compile PHP with gd.

No. Midgard for PHP4 can be compiled against a stock PHP4 (>=4.0.4pl1);
Midgard for PHP3
is a full replacement (superset) of PHP 3.0.18.

Midgard will not work in PHP as CGI, since it needs to communicate with
mod_midgard. As a Apache DSO, absolutely. I do that exclusively myself.
