Right now I have checked it out inside the php4 directory (could make a symlink like with libzend as well, but all the source gets updated with one "cvs update" this way). What I'll do for now is to set up automake in the TSRM (why the caps, btw?) directory as well and use php4's config.h, and this way make it part of php4. Or you could just stuff it into libzend. - Stig -- PHP 4 Beta
