What is so difficult to grok about

 1. setting up php-cgi to use fastcgi as the httpd default.

 2. having parallel non-zts and zts installs of php (notably with only
    non-zts cli and cgi sapi's) with two different lib paths.  Multiply
    by two again if you have parallel i686 and x86_64 installs.

All of these are packager's questions anyways, as so few users do this
for themself, most hosters aren't rebuilding php either.

PHP would be a much nicer, friendly and more civilized development list
if it borrowed only one phrase from the Perl community; TMTOWTDI.
