[horde] Groupware Webmail edition -install problem/ PHP CLI?

Folks,

The recommended fix for this was to run the CLI version of PHP,
instead of the cgi version that is also built.

I'm seeing the same thing on a RHEL 4 system, we do build our own PHP
and I enabled CLI, looked like it built it, but the setup.php still
just hangs?  I sure can see this as a very common problem and it stops
you cold in the install process without so much as an error message.
I was very lucky to find this thread on Google.

I didn't see anything on the Horde site on this, do you have any
definite workaround?  Our PHP was built with the stuff below and it
did create a 'php' executable in sapi/cli -- that still did not work?

Many thanks!
