The developers are listening, but since we all receive hundreds of
emails per day related to MapServer and other projects we may not be
able to answer every question (but we sure wish we could make sure every
single question is addressed).  BTW I've seen that you answered a few
compilation questions yourself in the last few days and that's great,
thanks!  :)

Try adding the following option to your MapServer configure:  
--enable-internal-ld-detect

This uses a different method to set the LD command to link
php_mapscript.so and was an attempt to fix the problems that you ran
into.  This new method was experimental in 3.6 and is the default in 3.7

I hope that helps
