        Well, after hours of experimentation and thanks *very*, nay
        __extremely__ much to the many people on this list, I finally
        realized that the default on php4 (and php5) does NOT set up
        php to work with apache.  I took in for granted that php and
        apache worked hand-in-glove.  Nope.  Matthew Seaman had me bring
        up the blue frame and select the appropriate [X].  I looked at the
        Makefiles and edited the "off" to "on".  After my 90-11th build,
        things worked.  Both on "sage" (aka ns1) and on zen and here on
        tao.thought.org.

        Live 'n' learn; and this time, the lesson is burned into my
        neurons:-)
