This is solved by people who roll distributions. Debian, Mandrake,
RedHat, FreeBSD, etc. It is very simple to add new features to an
existing PHP setup through these binary distributions of PHP, even for
newbies. Once you know your way around PHP and its build system, you will
probably want to build you own though. It's not that difficult.
