Again, I had to change /devel to /www, but having done that, it compiled 
and installed.  Based on 30 seconds of testing, the mediawiki stuff that 
used to crash now seems to work, phpinfo confirms that apc 3.1.3p1 is 
active.

Adjust the paths and ship it, it's vastly better than the status quo.

R's,
