Hi Mike,

To say in a different way:

It is not a bug. The JPEG support is optional. You have to use this
option to configure PHP GD with jpeg support.

This is specially true for exotic locations like the ones the endless
amount of weird places used by OS X.

by the way, bogus means "Not a bug"

ext/gd/config.m4 is munged because it can't find
/usr/local/lib/libjpeg.a on my machine - running Mac OS X 10.4.11.

I know it's there because I built and installed it myself.

the only way it finds libjpeg.a is by using
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local.

this is a configuration bug which cost me about 4 days to find because
I thought PHP built correctly. Didn't find it until drupal barfed on
image uploads.

It ain't Bogs

This is why there are the configure options available for people to
provide exotic locations for the libraries. And no, /opt is not any
"standard" location for anything.

Description:
------------
ext/gd/config.m4 contains code which looks for libjpeg.a and
libjpeg.<dynamic suffix> in $PHP_JPEG_DIR/$PHP_LIBDIR,
/usr/local/$PHP_LIBDIR and /usr/$PHP_LIBDIR. This fails to find
libjpeg.<whatever> when libjpeg is loaded onto a mac using macports
because it lives in /opt/local/lib.

Suggest adding, after line 75:
SUP_DIR=dirname $PHP_JPEG_DIR

and modifying line 76 to read:
  for i in $PHP_JPEG_DIR $SUP_DIR /usr/local /usr; do

Same holds for the libpng search and probably other things.

Actually, it would be nice if the script searched /usr/local and /usr
libraries if --with-gd were set, rather than having to know that you
have to set --with-jpeg-dir=...

If there is interest, I can hack the file
