Why are all these files executable? Is this on a DOS partition and
perhaps you extracted the files with WinZip or another DOS tool? Then
the files end up with DOS line endings, and because the kernel searches
for /bin/sh\r it can't find /bin/sh.

I'm not sure whether the DOS partition matters, but certainly the DOS
line endings are a problem. Extract your tarball with tar and gzip or
bzip2, not with a DOS tool. Choose one of the following lines:

# with GNU tar (on Linux you have GNU tar):
tar xjf php-4.3.3.tar.bz2
tar xzf php-4.3.3.tar.gz

# with Unix tar:
bunzip2 -c php-4.3.3.tar.bz2 | tar xf -
gzip -c php-4.3.3.tar.gz | tar xf -
