[PHP4BETA] Getting UNIX uptodate

The UNIX build is almost up to date, basically, the only thing that's missing for the CGI version is compilation and linkage of cgi_main.c. I could easily get around this by always compiling and linking it, and selectively #ifdef'ing the code away if we're not compiling a CGI, but I don't think that's the right way. With a small one last push, Stig, I think we can get it 100% modular which would end up being the best for everybody. I guess it involves some automake hacking though :) I think that both the CGI build and the Apache build, or for that matter, any build, should generate just libphp4.a. Then, we could simply have cgi_main.c sitting in php4_cgi, with a different Makefile, that compiles and links a CGI binary, much like Apache compiles and links a PHP module. The Makefile for the CGI can probably be generated always, regardless of whether or not we're building an Apache module or an NSAPI module or whatever. I guess the best approach would be to simply allow any number of modules to be built (i.e., CGI, Apache, fhttpd, NSAPI, whatever we end up having), when the CGI Makefile is always generated, and the rest gets generated only if you turn on an option (because not everybody would have every server available). Are you up to it, Stig? One other thing that I think we should do is separate SAPI to a different library, at least that was the original intent. I didn't do it just now since I didn't want to add in unnecessary complexity, but if there's a concensus about it, SAPI.[ch] should break up to have their own directory with configure.in and configure.in.in whatnot :) And one last thing, really, is the thread safety mode. Is it difficult to have --enable-thread-safety add -DZTS (that's obvious, even I know how to do that), but more importantly, use the .cpp rule for generating the scanner?
