GNU autoconf supports an option for adding a program prefix and suffix.  This is specified by running configure with the options --program-prefix=something or --program-suffix=something.  The point of this is to be able to have multiple simultaneous installations of a package.

These configure options are not honored by the PHP configure script.  It is not hard to do, and it would be useful for people wishing to have multiple versions of CGI/CLI installed (for example, it would be convenient to have php4 and php5 installed simultaneously to test BC).

This is likely to be a very quick fix by someone who knows much about the PHP compilation process.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

PHP 4.3.5 will have this, and next PHP 5 beta.
