In the case of Apache 1 only, php-apache.ini needs to be in the toplevel Apache directory. In every other case (php-cli.ini, php-cgi-fcgi.ini php-apache2.ini, and php-whatever-2.2-SAPI-is-called.ini) it needs to be in the PHP install dir. That means the only chance of having a meaningful collision with an existing PHP installation is via the Apache 1 module, thanks to the placement of that .ini file.
I've never that noticed back when I was running Apache 1; would having the php.ini in the Windows PATH or setting PHPRC help this any?
I've offered this patch before to provide the PHPIniDir for the Apache 1.3 SAPI - no response. Are people interested in my reintroducing it?

It wouldn't make any difference to John, since he'd need to support older Apache installs for the installer anyway... apart from that, it's got my vote! - Steph
