What do you exactly mean with "php as a CGI" ?
How to you want to invoke it (sample URL, please) ?
The 2 ways I see it it either to load php as a apache module (this is
the way I do it), or to start all php scripts with
#!/usr/pkg/bin/php
make them executables and put them in /usr/pkg/libexec/cgi-bin.
Then the php script are cgi executables as others.
