After compiling php3 with the Apache 1.3.9 module, we noticed that our native
auth_dbm routines for Apache were broken.

To reproduce it:

./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=/DIR
make
make install
In apache source:
./configure --activate-module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a
make
NO complaints.

However, when running the binary httpd, existing auth_dbm authentication
no longer works. Replace the binary without the php3, and it works fine.
This does not seem to affect auth_db, just auth_dbm.

BSDi 3.x
Perl 5.005_03
PHP 3.0.12
MySQL 3.22.27
Apache 1.3.9

I have searched *all* newsgroups and mailing list archives.

Bug ?

This is a dbm library mismatch issue.  Figure out which dbm library your original Apache binary was linked against and then compile PHP against that same one.
A first easy test would be to edit php's config.h file and change the #define GDBM 1 to #define GDBM 0 and turn on NDBM by setting #define NDBM 1
You can also try using the appropriate --with-?dbm php configure switch.  See ./configure --help
