They are still building SAPIs as part of the main PHP build. Building "stand-alone" SAPIs is not really supported. The closest one can do is build the embedded SAPI and then link against the created lib (either .a or .so) I was successful in the past ignoring the "embedded" stuff in the lib and register your own SAPI. But as said: That's not really supported. For this reason we're a bit less strict about adding SAPIs, like we did with lightspeed and fpm. johannes
