Ttf problems with php_mapscript and php as dso in apache2

[JP Liska]

Hello,

I've been using mapserver 4.4 with php as cgi for a long while. I am
interested in using php as dso. I am trying out mapserver 4.8.0-beta1 and I
am able to generate an image with shp2img, however when I use this map file
with php_mapscript, the process never completes.  Note that if I change the
font to bitmap, I have no problems at all.

Is it supposed to be possible to use php_mapscript in php as dso?

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks in advance

I'm configuring with this:

./configure --without-tiff --without-pdf --without-eppl
--with-proj=/dls/gis/proj-4.4.9 --with-postgis --without-wms
--with-php=/dls/php/php-5.1.0RC4 --enable-debug --with-jpeg=/usr
--with-ming=/dls/ming-0.3beta1/src --with-freetype=/usr/bin/freetype-config
--with-threads

---------------------
I get this when I run configure:

...
checking for FT_Init_FreeType in -lfreetype... yes
        using libfreetype -lfreetype from system libs.
...
checking for gdFontGetTiny in -lgd... yes
        using GD ( -DUSE_GD_GIF -DUSE_GD_PNG -DUSE_GD_JPEG -DUSE_GD_WBMP
-DUSE_GD_FT -DGD_HAS_GDIMAGEGIFPTR -DGD_HAS_GETBITMAPFONTS) from system
libs.

I'm testing with the following map file:
