Thanks Assefa. Your advice worked. The HOWTO should be updated because
it seems incomplete.
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc42/mapcontext-howto.html says only to,
"Build/install the above libraries on your system adn then build
MapServer with the '--with-wmsclient --with-proj --with-php' configure
options."
