See configure-Script of PHP: [...] if test "$found" = "yes"; then ac_libs=$LIBS LIBS="$LIBS -ldl" if test "$cross_compiling" = yes; then : found=no else [...] As you can see, the configure script sets "found" to no for libdl/dlopen-tests, if cross_compiling is enabled. In my opinion (and according to my tests) there is no reason to do this, as overriding this manually by setting -DHAVE_LIBDL as CFLAGS and adding -ldl to LDFLAGS leads to a PHP build that is Dynamic-Loading-enabled and works without problems on the target machine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60109&edit=1
