Current configure macros in PHP 4.0.x have flaw that breaks your assumption. ext/imap uses several PHP_ARG_WITH() macros in order to find out configuration options. When building ext/imap as standalone dynamically loadable module via phpize (self-contained extension), PHP_ARG_WITH() relies on the value of $php_always_shared (which is 'yes' here) so result of PHP_ARG_WITH always be 'yes' regardless of user input or system checks. This is known bug since early March but nobody fixed it and in general fixing requires serious rework of PHP4's configure macros concept. -- Sincerely yours, Alexander Bokovoy The Midgard Project | ALT Linux Team | Minsk Linux Users Group www.midgard-project.org | www.altlinux.ru | www.minsk-lug.net -- You won't skid if you stay in a rut. -- Frank Hubbard
