I think I figured out the problem I was having, wth one of the two options for building Apache with PHP, the one involving the use of apxs. There seems to have been a bug in the 'configure' program for PHP (4.3.1), is what I think at the moment anyway: some of the args passed to the call of 'apxs' were in the form of 'CFLAGS' rather than '$CFLAGS'. I wonder though, why no one else seems to have had this problem.
