Because I encountered problem (stalled childs) currently and some suggested --
enable-experimental-zts when using Apache worker MPM. I modified the Makefile 
and rebuild the PHP and extensions, and it seems fine, no more stalled child.

properly in multithreaded servers, that's why I wonder.

Well, I won't care how it works if everything run smooth. Too bad the box 
does not have huge amount of RAM, worker MPM is preferred atm, and I have to 
fix the problem.
