ERROR: dev-php/mod_php-4.3.1 failed. !!! Function php_check_java_config, Line 69, Exitcode 0 !!! You need to use java-config to set your JVM to a JDK! Uhm.. Nope. ;-) The Problem is the function "php_check_java_config" in src_compile. It's called unconditionally and that is a bug imho. Something like use java && php_check_java_config would do a better trick. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
I would add that this also happens when I try to install dev-php/php-4.3.1 -java in USE variable, and looked at the ebuild and there it is, called unconditionally as well. Now, even if I do set it with java-config, I get this: checking whether the C++ compiler (g++ -O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe -Wl,-rpath,/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -Wl,-rpath,/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/jre/lib/i386/server -L/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/jre/lib/i386/server -Wl,-rpath,/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/jre/lib/i386/native_threads -L/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/jre/lib/i386/native_threads -Wl,-rpath,/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/jre/lib/i386 -L/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1/jre/lib/i386 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/qt/3/lib -L/usr/qt/3/lib) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot create executables. !!!

Whoops. Fixed the bug with the php_check_java now. As for the rest of it, just use PHP 4.3.2, as it will be released to stable soon. The rest of that was because of a glitch with QT and PHP, and the PHP configure NOT properly checking them to produce good error messages.
