I know nothing about Curl, but...
Archive libphp4.so and any extensions PHP uses (mysql.so, imap.so etc, as
found in (/etc/?) php.ini.
Before you restart the webserver, run "httpd -t" to test if what you've done
will be fine. If it says "Syntax OK" you should be able to restart it
perfectly.
You could also edit httpd.conf and make ".php_test" files only use the new
libphp4.so module you create, see if that works, (ie, have two versions of
PHP running), and if it does, make 4.1.1 also do .php files.
