Description:
------------
I am attempting to install PHP 5.2.0 cli (from tarball) onto my server.  The server is a Fedora Core 2.  I have previously installed php-4.3.10 onto this server (from tarball) without difficulty.

First Problem I ran into was the dependency on libxml.  After an initial attempt to disable PHP5s use of libxml, I gave in and (attempted to) install libxml from tarball.

Next Problem was that libxml 2.2.6.27, despite claims of being stand-alone, is in fact dependent upon python.

Fedora Core 2 has python version 2.2 preinstalled from rpms.  libxml 2.2.6.27 was not happy with this version of python.  So I ended up installing python 2.5 using a --prefix and leaving the original intact.   

Python 2.5 installed without difficulty

After some additional tweaking with ld.so.conf; libxml installed without further difficulty. also using a --prefix

However, PHP 5.2.0 cli still refused to install.  I then became very aggressive about eliminating/disabling functionality to get it to a lowest complexity build.



Reproduce code:
---------------
./configure --no-create --enable-cli --enable-pcntl --enable-posix --enable-shmop --enable-sigchild --enable-sockets --enable-memory-limit --enable-track-vars --prefix=/usr/local/php5 --with-config-file-path=/etc/php5 --with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php5/php5.d --datadir=/var/tmp/php5/data --localstatedir=/var/tmp/php5 --sharedstatedir=/var/tmp/php5/com --sysconfdir=/etc --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --cache-file=./config.cache --disable-debug --disable-magic-quotes --without-oci8 --with-mime-magic=/usr/share/magic.mime --enable-bcmath --disable-xml --disable-libxml --disable-dom --disable-simplexml --disable-wddx --disable-xmlreader --disable-xmlwriter --without-pear --disable-openssl --disable-pcre 

make clean
make

Note:  Despite the fact that I have specified to disable PCRE, PHP5 still insists upon compiling it.


Expected result:
----------------
for a PHP5 cli to be built that can co-exist with a PHP4 cli




Actual result:
--------------

Note: The version of perl which is on this server is v5.8.4.  This was also preinstalled via rpm.

It is not clear to me if there is a seperate PCRE package that I need to update.  It appears to me that PHP is supplying all of the code for the PCRE package.
