Doh!  I'm an idiot.  I'll plead sleep deprivation.

I did copy the config from 4.1.2 and didn't look close enough since
4.1.2 didn't enforce safe_mode for fopen().

Sorry to waste everyone's time....

Your configure line. You're enabling it there.

--enable-safe-mode

Remove that, and it will be off.

I don't have a php.ini and PHP was compiled with the following
configure:

 ./configure  --prefix=/usr --with-config-file-path=/etc
--disable-debug --enable-inline-optimization --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs
--with-exec-dir=/usr/bin --with-regex=system --with-gettext --with-gd
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png --with-zlib --with-db2 --with-db3
--with-gdbm --enable-debugger --enable-magic-quotes --enable-safe-mode
--enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --enable-track-vars --enable-yp
--enable-ftp --without-mysql --with-xml --with-pgsql --enable-bcmath
--enable-exif --enable-ctype

The only place anything appears that would set safe_mode is my newly
added php_admin_value setting.

Is there some other place I need to look?

Check your php.ini file or the compile flags on your particular
compiled version.  The default is definitely still off in the code.

safe_mode is documented to default to "off".  However, after an upgrade
from PHP 4.1.2 to 4.2.2, a call to 

    fopen ("/tmp/mkimg.log", "a");

began to fail.  In order to correct the problem, I had to add a line

    php_admin_value safe_mode off

to my Apache configuration.  Note that this is Apache 1.3.22.  The
webserver is an Apache virtual host distinguished by IP address.
