[NCLUG] PHP patch

[mbutcher]

Wouldn't it be easier to install the new Mandrake RPM? Seems like you are 
opening a bigger can of worms by trying to patch old code than by just 
installing the latest, greatest RPM from Mandrake.

And if you are not using file uploads, you can disable them and get around 
the problem without upgrading. Is that an option?
