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.
