Hi,
I'm trying to compile my own php5, as the model in the script suggested by DreamHost, but I've troubles with mcrypt. Ok, I cut off this option and the compilation go out with an error compiling xml section. The last lines are:

After experiencing the exact same problem I added some notes to the DH wiki to solve this "glitch"; see:

many thanks!
now it works.
But now PHP has released PHP 5.0.5, and the script in Wiki should be updated.
I've compiled it (modifying a bit the script, with your adds and reference for 5.0.5) and it works!
Only another thing:
virtual() doesn't work with PHP5 as cgi, there is any workaround to make it working?

In reply to:virtual() doesn't work with PHP5 as cgi, there is any workaround to make it working?
That's a bit more of a puzzle. PHP online docs say it's an Apache-specific to mod_include *and* that it only works when PHP is installed as an Apache module, so I'm not so sure it's supposed to work with PHP as a cgi (..bearing in mind, of course, that I'm not the brightest bulb in the marquis on such matters by a longshot).
If you can be more specific as to what you're wanting it for (..without divulging any super-duper trade secrets or whatever) I might be able to recommend an alternative solution.
