PHP 3.0.11 builds and installs itself, but when I try to configure/build Apache (method 2, not using apxs)
then I get an error about not being able to find -lpcre.  The libpcre.a resides in the php3 directory
but its not found.  I've tried adding LIBS= and LDFLAGS= before the ./configure without any success.

I suspect the makefile template (I presume) installed by php should have setup the correct paths for
finding libraries, but apparently has not.

Reconfiguring and building php3 --without-pcre-regex, is the current workaround.

Known problem in 3.0.11.  The --with-shared-apache build mechanism is being deprecated anyway.
Try 3.0.12 when it is released later this week.
