I would appreciate this change, it would make everything much easier.
This output should also be added to phpinfo(), phpversion() and
anything else where a version information is returned by PHP.

When testing CVS versions of PHP it is occasionally easy to 
lose track of which date's version you're running, whether 
you forgot to compile after the last CVS update etc. Other 
than burrowing for the executables and reading modification 
dates, there doesn't seem to be an simple way of finding 
the build date. It would seem like a reasonable idea to add 
the build date to the output from php -v. so it reads 
something like:

>php -v
PHP 4.3.0-dev (cli) (built: Oct 29 12:04), Copyright (c) 
1997-2002 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v1.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2002 Zend 
Technologies
