After installing mod_php I ran (and received) the following: # ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php-4.3.2/mod_php-4.3.2.ebuild config *** Adjusting cvs-src permissions for portage user... * The PHP eclass needs a PHPSAPI setting! !!!

Re-install mod_php-4.3.2 or just copy the current mod_php-4.3.2.ebuild to your DB copy. This is because a global change was made to the PHP eclass to make it sane.
I have an automated build/configure script which now dies every time it tries to configure mod_php. If I understand you correctly, the steps to configure mod_php are: 1. Install mod_php 2. Run the configure script 3. Let it fail 4. Reinstall mod_php 5. Rerun the configure script That isn't a great solution. What can I do so that the configure script runs correctly at the first invocation? Thanks
All you have to do it overwrite /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php-4.3.2/mod_php-4.3.2.ebuild with the updated version. Just do: cp /usr/portage/dev-php/mod_php/mod_php-4.3.2.ebuild /var/db/pkg/dev-php/mod_php-4.3.2/mod_php-4.3.2.ebuild Then it will stop complaining. The sole problem here is that you have an outdated copy of the ebuild, without a critical change.
