What is this PHP-CGIWRAP? Is that any package or just
set of configuration lines?

Where do you install php binary version? "rpm -ivh php-4.0.6......src.rpm"
would install just a sources again. Install the file with 'i386.rpm'
at the end.

Yes, this is not a cgiwrap related, unless you run somewhere cgiwrap.
From your mail I understand that you can not run php as a simple cgi script.

Try execute any php script from the command line first:
  php -f script.php

If successful, then copy it to script.cgi (or copy it to cgi-bin/ directory etc.)
with the first line containing the php path:
  echo '#!/usr/bin/php' > script.cgi
  cat script.php >> script.cgi

Try execute it via the web server.
If you can see the php output in your browser, THEN
you can add cgiwrap to the apache configuration.
