-Chapter 2. Installation on Mac OS X
-
-   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
-   Mac OS X. There are two slightly different versions of Mac OS X,
-   Client and Server, our manual deals with installing PHP on both
-   systems. Note that PHP is not available for MacOS 9 and earlier
-   versions.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Using Packages
-
-   There are a few pre-packaged and pre-compiled versions of PHP for Mac
-   OS X. This can help in setting up a standard configuration, but if you
-   need to have a different set of features (such as a secure server, or
-   a different database driver), you may need to build PHP and/or your
-   web server yourself. If you are unfamiliar with building and compiling
-   your own software, it's worth checking whether somebody has already
-   built a packaged version of PHP with the features you need.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Compiling for OS X Server
-
-   Mac OS X Server install. 
-
-    1. Get the latest distributions of Apache and PHP.
-    2. Untar them, and run the configure program on Apache like so.
-
-./configure --exec-prefix=/usr \

---mandir=/usr/share/man \
---libexecdir=/System/Library/Apache/Modules \
---iconsdir=/System/Library/Apache/Icons \
---includedir=/System/Library/Frameworks/Apache.framework/Versions/1.3/Headers \
---enable-shared=max \
---enable-module=most \
---target=apache
-
-    3. If you want the compiler to do some optimization, you may also
-       want to add this line:
-
-setenv OPTIM=-O2
-
-    4. Next, go to the PHP 4 source directory and configure it.
-
-./configure --prefix=/usr \
-    --sysconfdir=/etc \
-    --localstatedir=/var \
-    --mandir=/usr/share/man \
-    --with-xml \
-    --with-apache=/src/apache_1.3.12
-
-       If you have any other additions (MySQL, GD, etc.), be sure to add
-       them here. For the --with-apache string, put in the path to your
-       apache source directory, for example /src/apache_1.3.12.
-    5. Type make and make install. This will add a directory to your
-       Apache source directory under src/modules/php4.
-    6. Now, reconfigure Apache to build in PHP 4.
-
-./configure --exec-prefix=/usr \
---localstatedir=/var \
---mandir=/usr/share/man \
---libexecdir=/System/Library/Apache/Modules \
---iconsdir=/System/Library/Apache/Icons \
---includedir=/System/Library/Frameworks/Apache.framework/Versions/1.3/Headers \
---enable-shared=max \
---enable-module=most \
---target=apache \
---activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
-
-       You may get a message telling you that libmodphp4.a is out of
-       date. If so, go to the src/modules/php4 directory inside your
-       Apache source directory and run this command: ranlib libmodphp4.a.
-       Then go back to the root of the Apache source directory and run
-       the above configure command again. That'll bring the link table up
-       to date. Run make and make install again.
-    7. Copy and rename the php.ini-dist file to your bin directory from
-       your PHP 4 source directory: cp php.ini-dist
-       /usr/local/bin/php.ini or (if your don't have a local directory)
-       cp php.ini-dist /usr/bin/php.ini.

-Compiling for MacOS X Client
-
-   The following instructions will help you install a PHP module for the
-   Apache web server included in MacOS X. This version includes support
-   for the MySQL and PostgreSQL databases. These instructions are
-   graciously provided by Marc Liyanage.
-
-   Warning
-
-   Be careful when you do this, you could screw up your Apache web
-   server!
-
-   Do this to install:
-
-    1. Open a terminal window.
-    2. Type wget
-       http://www.diax.ch/users/liyanage/software/macosx/libphp4.so.gz,
-       wait for the download to finish.
-    3. Type gunzip libphp4.so.gz.
-    4. Type sudo apxs -i -a -n php4 libphp4.so
-    5. Now type sudo open -a TextEdit /etc/httpd/httpd.conf. TextEdit
-       will open with the web server configuration file. Locate these two
-       lines towards the end of the file: (Use the Find command)
-
-#AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
-#AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
-
-       Remove the two hash marks (#), then save the file and quit
-       TextEdit.
-    6. Finally, type sudo apachectl graceful to restart the web server.
-
-   PHP should now be up and running. You can test it by dropping a file
-   into your Sites folder which is called test.php. Into that file, write
-   this line: <?php phpinfo() ?>.
-
-   Now open up 127.0.0.1/~your_username/test.php in your web browser. You
-   should see a status table with information about the PHP module.

-Gentoo installation notes
-
-   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
-   Gentoo Linux.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Using Portage (emerge)
-
-   While you can just download the PHP source and compile it youself,
-   using Gentoo's packaging system is the simplest and cleanest method of
-   installing PHP. If you are not familiar with building software on
-   Linux, this is the way to go.
-
-   If you have built your Gentoo system so far, you are probably used to
-   Portage already. Installing Apache and PHP is no different than the
-   other system tools.
-
-   The first decision you need to make is whether you want to install
-   Apache 1.3.x or Apache 2.x. While both can be used with PHP, the steps
-   given bellow will use Apache 1.3.x. Another thing to consider is
-   whether your local Portage tree is up to date. If you have not updated
-   it recently, you need to run emerge sync before anything else. This
-   way, you will be using the most recent stable version of Apache and
-   PHP.
-
-   Now that everything is in place, you can use the following example to
-   install Apache and PHP:
-
-   Example 3-1. Gentoo Install Example with Apache 1.3
-# emerge \<apache-2
-# USE="-*" emerge php mod_php
-# ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php-<your PHP version>/mod_php-<your PHP versi
-on>.ebuild config
-# nano /etc/conf.d/apache
-  Add "-D PHP4" to APACHE_OPTS
-
-# rc-update add apache default
-# /etc/init.d/apache start
-
-   You can read more about emerge in the excellent Portage Manual
-   provided on the Gentoo website.
-
-   If you need to use Apache 2, you can simply use emerge apache in the
-   last example.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Better control on configuration
-
-   In the last section, PHP was emerged without any activated modules. As
-   of this writing, the only module activated by default with Portage is
-   XML which is needed by PEAR. This may not be what you want and you
-   will soon discover that you need more activated modules, like MySQL,
-   gettext, GD, etc.
-
-   When you compile PHP from source yourself, you need to activate
-   modules via the configure command. With Gentoo, you can simply provide
-   USE flags which will be passed to the configure script automatically.
-   To see which USE flags to use with emerge, you can try:
-
-   Example 3-2. Getting the list of valid USE flags
-# USE="-*" emerge -pv php
-
-[ebuild  N    ] dev-php/php-4.3.6-r1  -X -berkdb -crypt -curl -debug -doc
--fdftk -firebird -flash -freetds -gd -gd-external -gdbm -gmp -hardenedphp
--imap -informix -ipv6 -java -jpeg -kerberos -ldap -mcal -memlimit -mssql
--mysql -ncurses -nls -oci8 -odbc -pam -pdflib -png -postgres -qt -readline
--snmp -spell -ssl -tiff -truetype -xml2 -yaz  3,876 kB
-
-   As you can see from the last output, PHP considers a lot of USE flags.
-   Look at them closely and choose what you need. If you choose a flag
-   and you do not have the proper librairies, Portage will compile them
-   for you. It is a good idea to use emerge -pv again to see what Portage
-   will compile in accordance to your USE flags. As an example, if you do
-   not have X installed and you choose to include X in the USE flags,
-   Portage will compile X prior to PHP, which can take a couple of hours.
-
-   If you choose to compile PHP with MySQL, cURL and GD support, the
-   command will look something like this:
-
-   Example 3-3. Install PHP with USE flags
-   # USE="-* curl mysql gd" emerge php mod_php
-
-   As in the last example, do not forget to emerge php as well as
-   mod_php. php is responsible for the command line version of PHP as
-   mod_php is for the Apache module version of PHP.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Common Problems
-
-     * If you see the PHP source instead of the result the script should
-       produce, you have probably forgot to edit /etc/conf.d/apache.
-       Apache needs to be started with the -D PHP4 flag. To see if the
-       flag is present, you should be able to see it when using ps ax |
-       grep apache while Apache is running.
-     * Due to slotting problems, you might end up with more than one
-       version of PHP installed on your system. If this is the case, you
-       need to unmerge the old versions manually by using emerge unmerge
-       mod_php-<old version>.
-     * If you cannot emerge PHP because of Java, try putting -* in front
-       of your USE flags like in the above examples.
-     * If you are having problems configuring Apache and PHP, you can
-       always search the Gentoo Forums. Try searching with the keywords
-       "Apache PHP".

-HP-UX specific installation notes
-
-   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
-   HP-UX systems. (Contributed by paul_mckay at clearwater-it dot co dot
-   uk).
-
-     Note: These tips were written for PHP 4.0.4 and Apache 1.3.9.
-
-    1. You need gzip, download a binary distribution from
-       http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/gzip-1.2.4a/gzip-1.2.4a-sd
-       -10.20.depot.Z uncompress the file and install using swinstall.
-    2. You need gcc, download a binary distribution from
-       http://gatekeep.cs.utah.edu/ftp/hpux/Gnu/gcc-2.95.2/gcc-2.95.2-sd-
-       10.20.depot.gz. uncompress this file and install gcc using
-       swinstall.
-    3. You need the GNU binutils, you can download a binary distribution
-       from
-       http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/binutils-2.9.1/binutils-2.
-       9.1-sd-10.20.depot.gz. uncompress this file and install binutils
-       using swinstall.
-    4. You now need bison, you can download a binary distribution from
-       http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/bison-1.28/bison-1.28-sd-1
-       0.20.depot.gz, install as above.
-    5. You now need flex, you need to download the source from one of the
-       http://www.gnu.org mirrors. It is in the non-gnu directory of the
-       ftp site. Download the file, gunzip, then tar -xvf it. Go into the
-       newly created flex directory and run ./configure, followed by
-       make, and then make install.
-       If you have errors here, it's probably because gcc etc. are not in
-       your PATH so add them to your PATH.
-    6. Download the PHP and apache sources.
-    7. gunzip and tar -xvf them. We need to hack a couple of files so
-       that they can compile OK.
-    8. Firstly the configure file needs to be hacked because it seems to
-       lose track of the fact that you are a hpux machine, there will be
-       a better way of doing this but a cheap and cheerful hack is to put
-       lt_target=hpux10.20 on line 47286 of the configure script.
-    9. Next, the Apache GuessOS file needs to be hacked. Under
-       apache_1.3.9/src/helpers change line 89 from echo
-       "hp${HPUXMACH}-hpux${HPUXVER}"; exit 0 to: echo
-       "hp${HPUXMACH}-hp-hpux${HPUXVER}"; exit 0
-   10. You cannot install PHP as a shared object under HP-UX so you must
-       compile it as a static, just follow the instructions at the Apache
-       page.
-   11. PHP and Apache should have compiled OK, but Apache won't start.
-       you need to create a new user for Apache, e.g. www, or apache. You
-       then change lines 252 and 253 of the conf/httpd.conf in Apache so
-       that instead of
-
-User nobody
-Group nogroup
-
-       you have something like
-
-User www
-Group sys
-
-       This is because you can't run Apache as nobody under hp-ux. Apache
-       and PHP should then work.

-OpenBSD installation notes
-
-   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
-   OpenBSD 3.4.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Using Binary Packages
-
-   Using binary packages to install PHP on OpenBSD is the recommended and
-   simplest method. The core package has been separated from the various
-   modules, and each can be installed and removed independently from the
-   others. The files you need can be found on your OpenBSD CD or on the
-   FTP site.
-
-   The main package you need to install is php4-core-4.3.3.tgz, which
-   contains the basic engine (plus gettext and iconv). Next, take a look
-   at the module packages, such as php4-mysql-4.3.3.tgz or
-   php4-imap-4.3.3.tgz. You need to use the phpxs command to activate and
-   deactivate these modules in your php.ini.
-
-   Example 3-4. OpenBSD Package Install Example
-# pkg_add php4-core-4.3.3.tgz
-# /usr/local/sbin/phpxs -s
-# cp /usr/local/share/doc/php4/php.ini-recommended /var/www/conf/php.ini
-  (add in mysql)
-# pkg_add php4-mysql-4.3.3.tgz
-# /usr/local/sbin/phpxs -a mysql
-  (add in imap)
-# pkg_add php4-imap-4.3.3.tgz
-# /usr/local/sbin/phpxs -a imap
-  (remove mysql as a test)
-# pkg_delete php4-mysql-4.3.3
-# /usr/local/sbin/phpxs -r mysql
-  (install the PEAR libraries)
-# pkg_add php4-pear-4.3.3.tgz
-
-   Read the packages(7) manual page for more information about binary
-   packages on OpenBSD.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Using Ports
-
-   You can also compile up PHP from source using the ports tree. However,
-   this is only recommended for users familiar with OpenBSD. The PHP 4
-   port is split into two sub-directories: core and extensions. The
-   extensions directory generates sub-packages for all of the supported
-   PHP modules. If you find you do not want to create some of these
-   modules, use the no_* FLAVOR. For example, to skip building the imap
-   module, set the FLAVOR to no_imap.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Common Problems
-
-     * The default install of Apache runs inside a chroot(2) jail, which
-       will restrict PHP scripts to accessing files under /var/www. You
-       will therefore need to create a /var/www/tmp directory for PHP
-       session files to be stored, or use an alternative session backend.
-       In addition, database sockets need to be placed inside the jail or
-       listen on the localhost interface. If you use network functions,
-       some files from /etc such as /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/services
-       will need to be moved into /var/www/etc. The OpenBSD PEAR package
-       automatically installs into the correct chroot directories, so no
-       special modification is needed there. More information on the
-       OpenBSD Apache is available in the OpenBSD FAQ.
-     * The OpenBSD 3.4 package for the gd extension requires XFree86 to
-       be installed. If you do not wish to use some of the font features
-       that require X11, install the php4-gd-4.3.3-no_x11.tgz package
-       instead.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Older Releases
-
-   Older releases of OpenBSD used the FLAVORS system to compile up a
-   statically linked PHP. Since it is hard to generate binary packages
-   using this method, it is now deprecated. You can still use the old
-   stable ports trees if you wish, but they are unsupported by the
-   OpenBSD team. If you have any comments about this, the current
-   maintainer for the port is Anil Madhavapeddy (avsm at openbsd dot
-   org).
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Solaris specific installation tips
-
-   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
-   Solaris systems.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Required software
-
-   Solaris installs often lack C compilers and their related tools. Read
-   this FAQ for information on why using GNU versions for some of these
-   tools is necessary. The required software is as follows:
-
-     * gcc (recommended, other C compilers may work)
-     * make
-     * flex
-     * bison
-     * m4
-     * autoconf
-     * automake
-     * perl
-     * gzip
-     * tar
-     * GNU sed
-
-   In addition, you will need to install (and possibly compile) any
-   additional software specific to your configuration, such as Oracle or
-   MySQL.
-     _________________________________________________________________
-
-Using Packages
-
-   You can simplify the Solaris install process by using pkgadd to
-   install most of your needed components.

+HP-UX specific installation notes
+
+   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
+   HP-UX systems. (Contributed by paul_mckay at clearwater-it dot co dot
+   uk).
+
+     Note: These tips were written for PHP 4.0.4 and Apache 1.3.9.
+
+    1. You need gzip, download a binary distribution from
+       http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/gzip-1.2.4a/gzip-1.2.4a-sd
+       -10.20.depot.Z uncompress the file and install using swinstall.
+    2. You need gcc, download a binary distribution from
+       http://gatekeep.cs.utah.edu/ftp/hpux/Gnu/gcc-2.95.2/gcc-2.95.2-sd-
+       10.20.depot.gz. uncompress this file and install gcc using
+       swinstall.
+    3. You need the GNU binutils, you can download a binary distribution
+       from
+       http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/binutils-2.9.1/binutils-2.
+       9.1-sd-10.20.depot.gz. uncompress this file and install binutils
+       using swinstall.
+    4. You now need bison, you can download a binary distribution from
+       http://hpux.connect.org.uk/ftp/hpux/Gnu/bison-1.28/bison-1.28-sd-1
+       0.20.depot.gz, install as above.
+    5. You now need flex, you need to download the source from one of the
+       http://www.gnu.org mirrors. It is in the non-gnu directory of the
+       ftp site. Download the file, gunzip, then tar -xvf it. Go into the
+       newly created flex directory and run ./configure, followed by
+       make, and then make install.
+       If you have errors here, it's probably because gcc etc. are not in
+       your PATH so add them to your PATH.
+    6. Download the PHP and apache sources.
+    7. gunzip and tar -xvf them. We need to hack a couple of files so
+       that they can compile OK.
+    8. Firstly the configure file needs to be hacked because it seems to
+       lose track of the fact that you are a hpux machine, there will be
+       a better way of doing this but a cheap and cheerful hack is to put
+       lt_target=hpux10.20 on line 47286 of the configure script.
+    9. Next, the Apache GuessOS file needs to be hacked. Under
+       apache_1.3.9/src/helpers change line 89 from echo
+       "hp${HPUXMACH}-hpux${HPUXVER}"; exit 0 to: echo
+       "hp${HPUXMACH}-hp-hpux${HPUXVER}"; exit 0
+   10. You cannot install PHP as a shared object under HP-UX so you must
+       compile it as a static, just follow the instructions at the Apache
+       page.
+   11. PHP and Apache should have compiled OK, but Apache won't start.
+       you need to create a new user for Apache, e.g. www, or apache. You
+       then change lines 252 and 253 of the conf/httpd.conf in Apache so
+       that instead of
+
+User nobody
+Group nogroup
+
+       you have something like
+
+User www
+Group sys
+
+       This is because you can't run Apache as nobody under hp-ux. Apache
+       and PHP should then work.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+OpenBSD installation notes
+
+   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
+   OpenBSD 3.4.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Using Binary Packages
+
+   Using binary packages to install PHP on OpenBSD is the recommended and
+   simplest method. The core package has been separated from the various
+   modules, and each can be installed and removed independently from the
+   others. The files you need can be found on your OpenBSD CD or on the
+   FTP site.
+
+   The main package you need to install is php4-core-4.3.3.tgz, which
+   contains the basic engine (plus gettext and iconv). Next, take a look
+   at the module packages, such as php4-mysql-4.3.3.tgz or
+   php4-imap-4.3.3.tgz. You need to use the phpxs command to activate and
+   deactivate these modules in your php.ini.
+
+   Example 2-6. OpenBSD Package Install Example
+# pkg_add php4-core-4.3.3.tgz
+# /usr/local/sbin/phpxs -s
+# cp /usr/local/share/doc/php4/php.ini-recommended /var/www/conf/php.ini
+  (add in mysql)
+# pkg_add php4-mysql-4.3.3.tgz
+# /usr/local/sbin/phpxs -a mysql
+  (add in imap)
+# pkg_add php4-imap-4.3.3.tgz
+# /usr/local/sbin/phpxs -a imap
+  (remove mysql as a test)
+# pkg_delete php4-mysql-4.3.3
+# /usr/local/sbin/phpxs -r mysql
+  (install the PEAR libraries)
+# pkg_add php4-pear-4.3.3.tgz
+
+   Read the packages(7) manual page for more information about binary
+   packages on OpenBSD.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Using Ports
+
+   You can also compile up PHP from source using the ports tree. However,
+   this is only recommended for users familiar with OpenBSD. The PHP 4
+   port is split into two sub-directories: core and extensions. The
+   extensions directory generates sub-packages for all of the supported
+   PHP modules. If you find you do not want to create some of these
+   modules, use the no_* FLAVOR. For example, to skip building the imap
+   module, set the FLAVOR to no_imap.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Common Problems
+
+     * The default install of Apache runs inside a chroot(2) jail, which
+       will restrict PHP scripts to accessing files under /var/www. You
+       will therefore need to create a /var/www/tmp directory for PHP
+       session files to be stored, or use an alternative session backend.
+       In addition, database sockets need to be placed inside the jail or
+       listen on the localhost interface. If you use network functions,
+       some files from /etc such as /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/services
+       will need to be moved into /var/www/etc. The OpenBSD PEAR package
+       automatically installs into the correct chroot directories, so no
+       special modification is needed there. More information on the
+       OpenBSD Apache is available in the OpenBSD FAQ.
+     * The OpenBSD 3.4 package for the gd extension requires XFree86 to
+       be installed. If you do not wish to use some of the font features
+       that require X11, install the php4-gd-4.3.3-no_x11.tgz package
+       instead.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Older Releases
+
+   Older releases of OpenBSD used the FLAVORS system to compile up a
+   statically linked PHP. Since it is hard to generate binary packages
+   using this method, it is now deprecated. You can still use the old
+   stable ports trees if you wish, but they are unsupported by the
+   OpenBSD team. If you have any comments about this, the current
+   maintainer for the port is Anil Madhavapeddy (avsm at openbsd dot
+   org).
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Solaris specific installation tips
+
+   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
+   Solaris systems.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Required software
+
+   Solaris installs often lack C compilers and their related tools. Read
+   this FAQ for information on why using GNU versions for some of these
+   tools is necessary. The required software is as follows:
+
+     * gcc (recommended, other C compilers may work)
+     * make
+     * flex
+     * bison
+     * m4
+     * autoconf
+     * automake
+     * perl
+     * gzip
+     * tar
+     * GNU sed
+
+   In addition, you will need to install (and possibly compile) any
+   additional software specific to your configuration, such as Oracle or
+   MySQL.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Using Packages
+
+   You can simplify the Solaris install process by using pkgadd to
+   install most of your needed components.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Gentoo installation notes
+
+   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
+   Gentoo Linux.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Using Portage (emerge)
+
+   While you can just download the PHP source and compile it yourself,
+   using Gentoo's packaging system is the simplest and cleanest method of
+   installing PHP. If you are not familiar with building software on
+   Linux, this is the way to go.
+
+   If you have built your Gentoo system so far, you are probably used to
+   Portage already. Installing Apache and PHP is no different than the
+   other system tools.
+
+   The first decision you need to make is whether you want to install
+   Apache 1.3.x or Apache 2.x. While both can be used with PHP, the steps
+   given bellow will use Apache 1.3.x. Another thing to consider is
+   whether your local Portage tree is up to date. If you have not updated
+   it recently, you need to run emerge sync before anything else. This
+   way, you will be using the most recent stable version of Apache and
+   PHP.
+
+   Now that everything is in place, you can use the following example to
+   install Apache and PHP:
+
+   Example 2-7. Gentoo Install Example with Apache 1.3
+# emerge \<apache-2
+# USE="-*" emerge php mod_php
+# ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php-<your PHP version>/mod_php-<your PHP versi
+on>.ebuild config
+# nano /etc/conf.d/apache
+  Add "-D PHP4" to APACHE_OPTS
+
+# rc-update add apache default
+# /etc/init.d/apache start
+
+   You can read more about emerge in the excellent Portage Manual
+   provided on the Gentoo website.
+
+   If you need to use Apache 2, you can simply use emerge apache in the
+   last example.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Better control on configuration
+
+   In the last section, PHP was emerged without any activated modules. As
+   of this writing, the only module activated by default with Portage is
+   XML which is needed by PEAR. This may not be what you want and you
+   will soon discover that you need more activated modules, like MySQL,
+   gettext, GD, etc.
+
+   When you compile PHP from source yourself, you need to activate
+   modules via the configure command. With Gentoo, you can simply provide
+   USE flags which will be passed to the configure script automatically.
+   To see which USE flags to use with emerge, you can try:
+
+   Example 2-8. Getting the list of valid USE flags
+# USE="-*" emerge -pv php
+
+[ebuild  N    ] dev-php/php-4.3.6-r1  -X -berkdb -crypt -curl -debug -doc
+-fdftk -firebird -flash -freetds -gd -gd-external -gdbm -gmp -hardenedphp
+-imap -informix -ipv6 -java -jpeg -kerberos -ldap -mcal -memlimit -mssql
+-mysql -ncurses -nls -oci8 -odbc -pam -pdflib -png -postgres -qt -readline
+-snmp -spell -ssl -tiff -truetype -xml2 -yaz  3,876 kB
+
+   As you can see from the last output, PHP considers a lot of USE flags.
+   Look at them closely and choose what you need. If you choose a flag
+   and you do not have the proper libraries, Portage will compile them
+   for you. It is a good idea to use emerge -pv again to see what Portage
+   will compile in accordance to your USE flags. As an example, if you do
+   not have X installed and you choose to include X in the USE flags,
+   Portage will compile X prior to PHP, which can take a couple of hours.
+
+   If you choose to compile PHP with MySQL, cURL and GD support, the
+   command will look something like this:
+
+   Example 2-9. Install PHP with USE flags
+   # USE="-* curl mysql gd" emerge php mod_php
+
+   As in the last example, do not forget to emerge php as well as
+   mod_php. php is responsible for the command line version of PHP as
+   mod_php is for the Apache module version of PHP.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Common Problems
+
+     * If you see the PHP source instead of the result the script should
+       produce, you have probably forgot to edit /etc/conf.d/apache.
+       Apache needs to be started with the -D PHP4 flag. To see if the
+       flag is present, you should be able to see it when using ps ax |
+       grep apache while Apache is running.
+     * Due to slotting problems, you might end up with more than one
+       version of PHP installed on your system. If this is the case, you
+       need to unmerge the old versions manually by using emerge unmerge
+       mod_php-<old version>.
+     * If you cannot emerge PHP because of Java, try putting -* in front
+       of your USE flags like in the above examples.
+     * If you are having problems configuring Apache and PHP, you can
+       always search the Gentoo Forums. Try searching with the keywords
+       "Apache PHP".
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Chapter 3. Installation on Mac OS X
+
+   This section contains notes and hints specific to installing PHP on
+   Mac OS X. There are two slightly different versions of Mac OS X,
+   Client and Server, our manual deals with installing PHP on both
+   systems. Note that PHP is not available for MacOS 9 and earlier
+   versions.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Using Packages
+
+   There are a few pre-packaged and pre-compiled versions of PHP for Mac
+   OS X. This can help in setting up a standard configuration, but if you
+   need to have a different set of features (such as a secure server, or
+   a different database driver), you may need to build PHP and/or your
+   web server yourself. If you are unfamiliar with building and compiling
+   your own software, it's worth checking whether somebody has already
+   built a packaged version of PHP with the features you need.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Compiling for OS X Server
+
+   Mac OS X Server install. 
+
+    1. Get the latest distributions of Apache and PHP.
+    2. Untar them, and run the configure program on Apache like so.
+
+./configure --exec-prefix=/usr \
+--localstatedir=/var \
+--mandir=/usr/share/man \
+--libexecdir=/System/Library/Apache/Modules \
+--iconsdir=/System/Library/Apache/Icons \
+--includedir=/System/Library/Frameworks/Apache.framework/Versions/1.3/Headers \
+--enable-shared=max \
+--enable-module=most \
+--target=apache
+
+    3. If you want the compiler to do some optimization, you may also
+       want to add this line:
+
+setenv OPTIM=-O2
+
+    4. Next, go to the PHP 4 source directory and configure it.
+
+./configure --prefix=/usr \
+    --sysconfdir=/etc \
+    --localstatedir=/var \
+    --mandir=/usr/share/man \
+    --with-xml \
+    --with-apache=/src/apache_1.3.12
+
+       If you have any other additions (MySQL, GD, etc.), be sure to add
+       them here. For the --with-apache string, put in the path to your
+       apache source directory, for example /src/apache_1.3.12.
+    5. Type make and make install. This will add a directory to your
+       Apache source directory under src/modules/php4.
+    6. Now, reconfigure Apache to build in PHP 4.
+
+./configure --exec-prefix=/usr \
+--localstatedir=/var \
+--mandir=/usr/share/man \
+--libexecdir=/System/Library/Apache/Modules \
+--iconsdir=/System/Library/Apache/Icons \
+--includedir=/System/Library/Frameworks/Apache.framework/Versions/1.3/Headers \
+--enable-shared=max \
+--enable-module=most \
+--target=apache \
+--activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
+
+       You may get a message telling you that libmodphp4.a is out of
+       date. If so, go to the src/modules/php4 directory inside your
+       Apache source directory and run this command: ranlib libmodphp4.a.
+       Then go back to the root of the Apache source directory and run
+       the above configure command again. That'll bring the link table up
+       to date. Run make and make install again.
+    7. Copy and rename the php.ini-dist file to your bin directory from
+       your PHP 4 source directory: cp php.ini-dist
+       /usr/local/bin/php.ini or (if your don't have a local directory)
+       cp php.ini-dist /usr/bin/php.ini.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Compiling for MacOS X Client
+
+   The following instructions will help you install a PHP module for the
+   Apache web server included in MacOS X. This version includes support
+   for the MySQL and PostgreSQL databases. These instructions are
+   graciously provided by Marc Liyanage.
+
+   Warning
+
+   Be careful when you do this, you could screw up your Apache web
+   server!
+
+   Do this to install:
+
+    1. Open a terminal window.
+    2. Type wget
+       http://www.diax.ch/users/liyanage/software/macosx/libphp4.so.gz,
+       wait for the download to finish.
+    3. Type gunzip libphp4.so.gz.
+    4. Type sudo apxs -i -a -n php4 libphp4.so
+    5. Now type sudo open -a TextEdit /etc/httpd/httpd.conf. TextEdit
+       will open with the web server configuration file. Locate these two
+       lines towards the end of the file: (Use the Find command)
+
+#AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
+#AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
+
+       Remove the two hash marks (#), then save the file and quit
+       TextEdit.
+    6. Finally, type sudo apachectl graceful to restart the web server.
+
+   PHP should now be up and running. You can test it by dropping a file
+   into your Sites folder which is called test.php. Into that file, write
+   this line: <?php phpinfo() ?>.
+
+   Now open up 127.0.0.1/~your_username/test.php in your web browser. You
+   should see a status table with information about the PHP module.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Chapter 4. Installation of PECL extensions
+
+Introduction to PECL Installations
+
+   PHP extensions may be installed in a variety of ways. PECL is a
+   repository of PHP extensions living within the PEAR structure, and the
+   following demonstrates how to install these extensions.
+
+   These instructions assume /your/phpsrcdir/ is the path to the PHP
+   source, and extname is the name of the PECL extension. Adjust
+   accordingly. These instructions also assume a familiarity with the
+   pear command.
+
+   Shared extensions may be installed by including them inside of php.ini
+   using the extension PHP directive. See also the extensions_dir
+   directive, and dl(). The installation methods described below do not
+   automatically configure PHP to include these extensions, this step
+   must be done manually.
+
+   When building PHP modules, it's important to have the appropriate
+   versions of the required tools (autoconf, automake, libtool, etc.) See
+   the Anonymous CVS Instructions for details on the required tools, and
+   required versions.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Downloading PECL extensions
+
+   There are several options for downloading PECL extensions, such as:
+
+     * http://pecl.php.net
+       Listed here is information like the ChangeLog, release
+       information, requirements, revisions, etc. Although not every PECL
+       extension has a webpage, most do.
+     * pear download extname
+       The pear command may also be used to download source files.
+       Specific revisions may also be specified.
+     * CVS
+       All PECL files reside in CVS. A web-based view may be seen at
+       http://cvs.php.net/pecl/. To download straight from CVS, consider
+       the following where phpfi is the password for user cvsread:
+
+$ cvs -d:pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository login
+$ cvs -d:pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository co pecl/extname
+
+     * Windows downloads
+       Windows users may find compiled PECL binaries by downloading the
+       Collection of PECL modules from the PHP Downloads page, and by
+       retrieving a PECL Snapshot. To compile PHP under Windows, read the
+       Win32 Build README.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+PECL for Windows users
+
+   Like with any other PHP extension DLL, to install move the PECL
+   extension DLLs into the extension_dir folder and include them within
+   php.ini. For example:
+
+   extension=php_extname.dll
+
+   After doing this, restart the web server.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Compiling shared PECL extensions with PEAR
+
+   PEAR makes it easy to create shared PHP extensions. Using the pear
+   command, do the following:
+
+   $ pear install extname
+
+   That will download the source for extname, and compile it on the
+   system. This results in an extname.so file that may then be included
+   in php.ini
+
+   In case the systems preferred_state is set higher than an available
+   extname version, like it's set to stable and the extension is still in
+   beta, either alter the preferred_state via pear config-set or specify
+   a specific version of the PECL extension. For example:
+
+   $ pear install extname-0.1.1
+
+   Regardless, pear will copy this extname.so into the extensions
+   directory. Adjust php.ini accordingly.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Compiling shared PECL extensions with phpize
+
+   If using pear is not an option, like for building shared PECL
+   extensions from CVS, or for unreleased PECL packages, then creating a
+   shared extension may also be done by manually using the phpize
+   command. The pear command essentially does this but it may also be
+   done manually. Assuming the source file is named extname.tgz, and that
+   it was downloaded into the current directory, consider the following:
+
+$ pear download extname
+$ gzip -d < extname.tgz | tar -xvf -
+$ cd extname
+$ phpize
+$ ./configure && make
+
+   Upon success, this will create extname.so and put it into the modules/
+   and/or .libs/ directory within the extname/ source. Move this shared
+   extension (extname.so) into the PHP extensions directory, and adjust
+   php.ini accordingly.
+     _________________________________________________________________
+
+Compiling PECL extensions statically into PHP
+
+   To statically include the extension within the PHP build, put the
+   extensions source into the ext/ directory found in the PHP source. For
+   example:
+
+$ cd /your/phpsrcdir/ext
+$ pear download extname
+$ gzip -d < extname.tgz | tar -xvf -
+$ mv extname-x.x.x extname
+$ rm package.xml
+
+   This will result in the following directory:
+
+   /your/phpsrcdir/ext/extname
+
+   From here, build PHP as normal:
+
+$ cd /your/phpsrcdir
+$ ./buildconf
+$ ./configure --help
+$ ./configure --with-extname --enable-someotherext --with-foobar
+$ make
+$ make install
+
+   Whether --enable-extname or --with-extname is used depends on the
+   extension. Typically an extension that does not require external
+   libraries uses --enable. To be sure, run the following after
+   buildconf:
+
+   $ ./configure --help | grep extname
