I'm going to be in the tropics (no, not a vacation, I wish...) this
weekend tending to some family affairs, but I plan to get this stuff in
right after I'm done doing some apache2.2 stuff I promised Steve.

Co-installability of mod_php4 and mod_php5, you mean?  That's pretty
much a no-go, due to symbol clashes you'll get in the loaded apache
instance.  Okay, fine, you could install both and not USE one, but
somehow I don't think that's what users really want when they say they
want to install both. :)

You pretty much have to go with one as a module and one as CGI, or both
as CGI (both of those configurations are already supported by the
packaging).
