This features make it possible to let PHP3 and PHP4 run as + concurrent modules in one Apache server. + + This feature is known to work on the following platforms: + + - Linux with recent binutils (2.9.1.x tested) + - Solaris 2.5 or better + - FreeBSD (4.0-current tested) + + To enable it, configure PHP3 and PHP4 to use APXS (--with-apxs) and the + necessary link extensions (--enable-versioning).
