Your php_mapscript.so is likely correct, the error tells you that 
php_mapscript can't work with your PHP config (this will be resolved in 
the next 4.1 release).  What you need to do is compile PHP as a CGI, 
install the php binary in the cgi-bin directory and then adding the 
following changes to the httpd.conf should enable it:

AddType application/x-httpd-php-cgi .php .php3 .php4 .phtml
Action  application/x-httpd-php-cgi /cgi-bin/php

Also make sure that you comment out any other line that may already be 
present in your httpd.conf for application/x-httpd-php
