I'm all for this, as I thought it to be very annoying too...

But axps only does this if the "-a" flag is specified. Just 
drop that.

This is not something that PHP does, but the apache "APXS" tool. If you
want to prevent that, either don't use "make install" or make a static
module for PHP.

Description:
------------
The installation procedure tries to be helpful and adds a 
loadmodule instruction to the apache configuration. This 
might be nice if you have a default installation, but I 
firmly believe in keeping separate packages separate to 
keep my installation manageable. Therefore I have separate 
configuration files for addons like php or subversion; the 
"main" httpd.conf gets overwritten every now and then. 
 
So I'd like have at least the option of disabling this 
feature.
