In the past I've had success compiling PHP4 on OS X. However, now I'm
trying to get PHP5 working and not having much luck. I'm getting
configure to work, and make goes ok until the final linking stage at
which point I get this error:

ld: unknown flag: -export-symbols
make: *** [libs/libphp5.bundle] Error 1

It seems that that flag must be set in a make file somewhere (it's not
in my environment), and it's certainly not documented in the OS X ld
man pages.

Not sure if it makes any difference, but most of the external modules
that PHP uses are built from fink. I need some modules that are not
supported in any of the pre-built fink PHP5 packages, and I'm used to
compiling it without difficulty on Linux and OpenBSD.

Anyone else run into this or have any idea how I might fix it?
