Linux only, here.
I usually build every (free, at least) php extension I can, although I
can't say I've actually *used* them.
My typical php build consists of:
Latest apache (1.3.19)
Latest (stable) PHP as an apache module, and as a cgi/shell interpreter.
I strip these two down to a bare minimum and compile the 'extras' as
shared objects, and dl() them as needed.
Modules I build (in order of greatest usage):
dba (berkeley db3), zlib, bzip2, curl, pcre, ftp, sockets, pgsql, mysql,
xml, domxml, wddx, posix, gd, bcmath, imap, pspell, zzip, readline, shmop,
sysvshm, sysvsem, gmp, gettext, and everything else that is 'bundled'.
Like I said, basically everything that is free. ;)
I tend to keep this box as up-to-date as possible.. it's currently based
on glibc 2.2.3 and gcc 2.95.3.
I know enough C to either 1) fix something that's broken, or 2) break it
even worse. I'm better at fixing compile time issues (have to be to use
most of the latest GNU software ;).
Anything else you need to know?
BTW.. I noticed the is_link() bug report for php3. Andi very graciously
fixed this for me in php4-cvs, and I backported his changes to php3. The
patch I made against it fixes it for me, but it should probably get a good
staring from a real developer. ;)
