Bug description: undefined symbol alloca while building apache

I trying to build Apache 1.3.19 with PHP4 and Oracle 8.1.7.
I've now loaded the latest version of PHP4 from snaps.php.net as 4.0.4pl1 didn't detect Oracle 8 correctly and built this OK with:-

cd php4-200104270145
export ORACLE_HOME=/o8/product/8.1.7
./configure --without-mysql
    --with-oracle
    --with-apache=../apache_1.3.19 --enable-track-vars
make
make install

It thens fails when I try to link it into Apache with:-

cd ../apache_1.3.19
./configure --activate-module=src/php4/libphp4.a
make

make returns the following error about alloca

        cc -DAIX=43 -DUSE_PTHREAD_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT

Stop.

I've read elsewhere on bug 9079 that alloca() is not part of 4.3.3 so I've even tried setting CFLAGS=-ma as suggested. This also fails. Any ideas?

Thanks IanP
