I've found this was necessary on 1.3.10 as well. Not a good idea. I 
better try again with it off and see if I made a mistake. I had a bit 
of trouble until I realised that php cached everything in the 
config/config.ini until I restarted apache.

I also had problems with variables_order = "GPCS". Shouldn't you be 
using getenv()?

Then may I suggest you mark it as such in Sourceforge and I'll get the 
FreeBSD committers to CVS my port once I've ironed out the bugs.

Well, it started because you changed a lot of folder names. So I 
cleaned that up. Then I tried to make it work better and break less in 
the future. Then I put things in more sensible paths and put in a 
little documentation about how to get it to work once you've finished. 
I'll post what I've got so far, but isn't quite done...I've got a 
problem right now with sed, but I'll get that sorted.

Yes, I thought about that, but I wasn't sure about the problems with 
getting apache to read that directory properly since it is outside 
docroot. I wanted to keep changes to httpd.conf to a minimum since they 
are very hard to automate.
