It's libtool which drops the runpaths when building shared libraries.
So this report is suspended until libtool is changed to support it.

Of course I know about LD_LIBRARY_PATH. This is at best a bad
workaround. A well-build program should not require LD_LIBRARY_PATH
but have the correct runpath coded into it.

You must use LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
ie. Do:
# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/export/www/apache/lib:/export/www/mysql/lib/mysql
 
before starting apache.

Correction:
The configure arguments also contained
 --with-db2=/export/www/apache

Apache php module configured with:
env CC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc CFLAGS=-xO2 ./configure
--with-apxs=/export/www/apache/sbin/apxs --with-ndbm --with-db --with-mysql=/export/www/mysql --enable-yp --enable-sysvsem --enable-sysvshm --with-exec-dir=/export/www/php/bin --enable-versioning --with-config-file-path=/export/www/php/lib --prefix=/export/www/php --disable-debug

The resulting libphp4.so references shared libdb2.so (in
/export/www/apache/lib) and libmysqlclient.so (in
/export/www/mysql/lib/mysql) and thus should have the runpath
-R/export/www/apache/lib:/export/www/mysql/lib/mysql
coded into it. This does not happen, although the make log shows
the presence of the -R options when libtool is called.
Dirty workaround:
After configure, change line 1082 in libtool:
< linkopts= 

---
>     linkopts=-R/export/www/apache/lib:/export/www/mysql/lib/mysql

(Apache itself does not have this runpath. Of course, this would suggest
another workaround, but one should not rely on this for an independently
added module.)
