Ah, I see, the necessary headers get installed with the release package.  Very good!

OK, I see, n00b ignorance on my part.  I'm use to installing "dev" packages under Debian systems so that I can build other software from source.  What's the equivalent under MacPorts?

Thanks a bunch.

Hi,
you should actually install php5, it's 5.2.4 release version, while
php5-devel is currently its last release candidate (5.2.4RC3)
(something newer, when there are new rc's, with this file added,
sorry for that).
