My ideas with comments:

This sounds like it could be an ldconfig issue.  ldconfig framework
changed recently, specifically in regards to MySQL.  Others on this list
should be able to chime in here with details on that.

If you're building PHP as an Apache module: is PHP 5.1.2 even compatible
with Apache 2.2?  APR changed (again, sigh) as of Apache 2.2, and many
third-party server modules no longer work.  Is PHP part-of this list?

Finally, is there anything in your Apache ErrorLog which helps?  Missing
symbols would be a good indicator...
