then the only thing I need to sort out is how to indicate (via the "configure" step) where the libraries of each version's build get put in the file system... and kept separate from one another (i.e. short of doing a mv of he dir)

configure --help will tell you (as the very first option it explains): Installation directories:

  --prefix=PREFIX         install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
                          [/usr/local]

"--prefix=/path" is common standard for almost all configure scripts for setting the overall install path, this is not PHP specific -- Hartmut Holzgraefe hartmut@six.de http://www.six.de +49-711-99091-77
