Hi All,

I'm wanting to patch my php install in light of the recent buffer overflow
bug.

I have a stock install with apache from the Mandrake 8.1 install.  The php
version is 4.03p11

There isn't a patch for that version only 4.06 and 4.1, and nothing to get
from 4.03 to 4.06.  So I am going to attempt a new compile.
Questions:
I don't have any idea what options were enabled in the Mandrake install of
PHP.  My site is working the way I want it so I don't want to break anything
with a new compile.
What is the best way to do this so I don't end up spending all weekend
fixing my stupid mistakes, or so I can get back to my working configuration.


Thanks
Chris Funk
