Basically, I have done all that except using the -f parameter.
In effect, php5 is trying to add the mod_php5 module, only it is getting
the directory name as apache2 and not apache22 and is thus creating
apache2 directories... from what I could find in the Makefile or
somewhere I don't recall, this directory comes from some PATH type
thingy... $LD_LIBRARY_PATH but I don't know or could not find the source
of this.
