Read up on safe_mode and open_basedir.
A sample vhost stub using the two in conjunction:
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName www.example.com
DocumentRoot /home/example/web
php_admin_value safe_mode 1
php_admin_value open_basedir /home/example/web
</VirtualHost>
the open_basedir line restricts users to only operating on files under
/home/example/web (ie stops users from 'snooping' on other user's
files).
The safe_mode line restricts the functionality of a large
number of PHP functions - not to mention checking that the user who owns
the script also owns the files the script attempts to operate on (this
is from memory though, checkout the chapter on safe mode in the manual
for detailed info).
AFAIK this is the closest PHP gets to running a script under the same
UID/GID as the user/group that owns the script.
