When you run configure --with-dom it only checks that you have the libxml library >= 2.2.7. However the libxml 2.3.x series doesn't work with PHP and causes undefined symbols (Either during linking or when Apache loads the module)

I used the following configure options:
./configure  --with-apxs=/usr/apache/bin/apxs --with-zlib --with-regex=system --with-readline --with-pdflib --with-mysql=/home/mysql --with-gettext --enable-ftp --with-gd=../gd-1.8.4 --with-bz2 --enable-calendar --with-dom --with-java=/usr/local/jdk1.3

Here is a simplistic patch that does a poor job of checking that the 2.3.x series is not in use.

Please try with the latest CVS snapshot from http://snaps.php.net/ as I?m using libxml 2.3.4 and it compiles with the latest CVS just fine.

This should be fixed. But if this happens also with soon to 
be released PHP 4.0.5, reopen this bug report.
