Hi Richard,
First of all thank you guys for replying!
Here is the output of ldd:

As for when it stopped working - the first thing I did is trying to recall if I updated any ports.
I've even went so far as looking for all files in /usr/ modified within the date range, but no,
nothing.
I did update php5 couple days before that. But it still worked for about two days after that.
And I don't have apache/php opened to outside anyway. Just mail ports and ssh on high port (closed
it for now for just in case anyway).
