No... on most systems, compiling php_mapscript.so is just a matter of
passing the --with-php=DIR configure switch and typing make.

I guess you must be referring to the error that you posted a few days
ago:

... I don't understand why you get this.  At this point the compiler
should only build .o files (because of the -c compiler option), but the
errors seem to suggest that it's trying to link an executable.  Perhaps
you can try to remove options from the "CC=" line in
mapscript/php3/Makefile until it you get it to work.  Try removing the
following: "-march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -fno-strict-aliasing" from the CC=
line in the Makefile and see if that changes anything.
