	What i found about ten minutes ago is just hard to believe.  But
	php.ini and the cp I made of it [just because], PHP.ini was/is 
	garbaged.  [???-bar]

	I di a make extract in the php52 dir and looked into the
	work/*/* directory to see what the src build stuff looked like.  
	A `locate php.ini' tells me that, at least for FreeBSD, the init
	file doesn't go into /usr/local/lib.

	I'll copy the distribution init over the garbaged 
	/usr/local/etc/php.int and start from there.  ....
