When I run configure I get the following message:
"Something is likely to be messed up here, because the configure script was not able to detect a simple feature on your platform. This is often caused by incorrect configuration parameters. Please see the file debug.log for error messages...."
The debug.log shows the following:

Note:
With my install of the perl msql-mysql module I initially got an error: ld can't find -lz (also -lgz) -- but as they were only just included in the default install in the last version I felt OK about commenting them out of the Install.pm file & that install then went smoothly. But now with the same libs being required for the php install (with-mysql) I'm thinking I somehow missed installing some necessary libraries. BTW, I re-installed mysql from source (initially from binary), thinking the necessary libs were contained in the mysql source files, but apparently that's not where they come from.
Thanks,
