Hi John,

PHP support is lacking at the moment. I think if libphp could be compiled
for x64 then it wouldn't be a problem to compile php mapscript against it.
I'll give it a try this weekend if I have enough time.

I think that's not a strong requirement, you could either use fastcgi and
cgi equally well, however fastcgi will perform better.

Best regards,
