Description:
------------
The php configure script assumes that all hp-ux os's use .sl extension for shared libraries.  HP-UX 11.31 now uses .so extension for shared libraries.  If the configure script is used on HP-UX 11.31, it will not find the shared libraries because it is always looking for the .sl extension.  The configure script will have to test what version of hpux is being used in order to set the configure shlib suffix name variables correctly.



Test script:
---------------
Snip from configure:
 *hpux*)
   SHLIB_SUFFIX_NAME=sl
   SHLIB_DL_SUFFIX_NAME=sl

I changed to this to get it to work:


 *hpux*)
   SHLIB_SUFFIX_NAME=so
   SHLIB_DL_SUFFIX_NAME=so

Hi

I belive we should have a check for the newer versions of HPUX and override those values to keep BC with older versions, however Im not familiar with the Unix build system, but if you can provide such a patch one of us will commit it

According to a StackOverflow answer, .so is in use as of HP-UX
11.20. According to Wikipedia[2] HP-UX 11.20 has been released in
2001. If both statements are true, we certainly could simply
change the extension without fallback.

The question is, however, whether this is still an issue with any
of the actively supported PHP versions[1]?
