For all other libraries *which are bundled with PHP*, not just *used* by PHP. Why are the php_compat.h #defines acceptable to fix this issue for PCRE and expat, but not for libgd? > A note in the documentation stating that > if you want to use GD from PHP and another Apache module you need to compile > PHP with the external library should be sufficient. This would be a reasonable argument if the libgd bundled with PHP was exactly the same as the upstream libgd, but that's not the case, the libgd bundled with PHP is extensively modified. joe -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
