I'm using Marc Liyanage's PHP 5.0.3 package for OS X:

http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/php/

The FAQ says that the CGI binary is included, and that it is installed in /usr/local/php5/bin. However, it appears to be the CLI version, not CGI:

$ /usr/local/php5/bin/php -v
PHP 5.0.3 (cli) (built: Mar 6 2005 22:13:21)
Copyright (c) 1997-2004 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.0.3, Copyright (c) 1998-2004 Zend Technologies

Is there something I'm missing? Can this function as the CGI version? What I'm most interested in is having the $_GET and $_POST superglobals working. As it is, they're initialized as arrays, but aren't populated with any of the actual POST or GET data. (Same for $HTTP_GET_VARS and $HTTP_POST_VARS.)

Thanks.
