  Thanks for the work so far to help track this down. This was a good
place to head, but it wasn't quite the problem.

  Further clarification:

  Apache Version | PHP Version | 404 vs 403 |
  1.3.1 3.0.3 404
  1.3.2 3.0.3 404
  1.3.1 3.0.4 403
  1.3.2 3.0.4 403
  1.3.2/with patch 3.0.4 403

  I'm not sure how a recent bug introduced into Apache would be the
problem as it would then have been noticed in the 1.3.1 version. I have
compiled 1.3.2 with the patch against 3.0.4 and installed into the /tmp
directory. A request to http://localhost:8080/ gives me the familiar 'It
works' while http://localhost:8080/f gives me the:

"Forbidden

access to /f failed

Apache/1.3.2 Server at fox.flora.ottawa.on.ca Port 8080
"

  My next step will be to disable IMAP and MySQL support in my PHP compile
and see if there is anything in the inclusion of those functions that
might be causing this problem. Does anyone have a similar system to mine
(Linux 2.0.35/libc5. Essentially a Slackware 3.5 with an updated kernel)
that could try just compiling, make install into some temp directory, and
see what happens on port 8080 on localhost?

Here is the PHP configure:

./configure --with-mysql --with-imap \
--with-apache=../apache_1.3.2 \
--enable-track-vars

And here is the Apache config:

./configure \
"--prefix=/tmp/apache" \
"--activate-module=src/modules/php3/libphp3.a"

And some other 'possibly' relevant stuff:
