I've written two or so wikis on that topic:
http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/SecuringPHP
http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/ExtendingPrivilegeSeparation

This is how I do it, but there's also other options.
I am however of the firm believe that if you start securing
your server at this low a level (Unix UIDs and permissions)
your chances of winning the battle will look slightly better
than when you start introducing fancy stuff in higher layers.
