Is it so hard to understand that i as a > developer want to test with three modules? If you compile apache sapi module you automatically get php-cli compiled (4.3.0-dev), so there is no wait. Compiling any other sapi ONLY involves compiling the files needed for that sapi and then relinking the php files (unless make clean is run). This would take not more then a minute even on an old computer. Most people do not require cli, apache and cgi on the same machine since apache & cgi are rather redundant. Having all three, is as you mentioned is only for testing perposes, so it would be of interest only to people working on PHP. Since it is only for testing, there is hardly a need to delays everyone's PHP compile times and use up extra 4 megs or so for the useless cgi or apache binary. If you do require all 3 for testing, why not simply make a shell script that would automatically build you all 3, saving you the few seconds needed to run the configure script on each run. config.nice_apache make make install config.nice_cgi make make install Ilia
