  I tried the php4-STABLE-200207240000 snapshot version in Solaris 8 with Apache 2.0.39.
  I have tried both apache2filter & cgi method, different result in below example:

    $randval = rand(1,1000);
    echo $randval . "\n";

  in "cgi" mod, the result is always correct, return number between 1 - 1000, in "apache2filter" mod, the result always return 1. After doing some debug, found the problem in "rand.c" under "php_rand" function. In "apache2filter" mod, "ZTS" is defined and always call php_rand_r(). If I comment out and prevent calling php_rand_r(), the result is correct.

Please try this snapshot:

This php-latest snapshot is for Apache >= 2.0.40
  Should I try php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz?

No, you should try apache 2.0.40-cvs and the latest NON-stable snapshot (http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz).
