Huh?  MySQL works fine with Unix domain sockets, or at least, it did the
last time I used it.  If mod_php4.so has a problem, that's PHP's deal.
Don't add a workaround for something that isn't broken.

-R was added to the link line for mod_php4.so?  (Have you checked to make
sure the linker's really getting the option?)

Granted, forcing dependency on libgdbm is bogus anyway, but I didn't get
involved in the php4 module, which probably needs serious cleanup.
