I'm currently working on full support for PHP5 in the php eclasses, so stay tuned regarding this.
btw, i also currently get this error and investigating on it.

[Comment 2 Holly 2004-03-14 06:16:43 UTC]

ok thanks, good to know. will it be possible to have php4 and php5 as apache-modules at the same time? (like php4 parses .php files and php5 parses .php5 files?

[Comment 3 Stuart Herbert (RETIRED) 2004-03-28 16:38:26 UTC]

This is caused by our php-cvs ebuild doing a 'make install-modules' when there are no shared modules.  It's really a bug in PHP's build scripts.

[Comment 4 R Brenton Strickler 2004-06-30 17:30:33 UTC]

After it started it's ./configure, i did a 'touch /var/tmp/portage/php-cvs-5.0-r2/work/php-src/modules/test_module' and that seemed to allow it to finish it's build without errors.

[Comment 5 Robin Johnson 2004-08-07 13:25:37 UTC]

php-cvs obsolete.
go and use one of the new php5 packages (-arch masked for the next week).
