--------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Configure and install Apache2
    # ./configure --enable-mods-shared="cgi dav dav_fs dir log_config rewrite status" --with-mpm=prefork --enable-so
    # make
    # make install

2. Configure and install MySQL
    # CFLAGS="-O3" CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS="-O3 -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti" ./configure --with-unix-socket-path=/tmp/mysql.sock --with-client-ldflags=-all-static --with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static --enable-assembler --without-debug

3. Configure and install PHP
    # ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql --with-mysql-sock=/tmp/mysql.sock --with-gd --with-png --with-zlib --enable-inline-optimization --disable-debug --with-gettext --with-gdbm --with-pear=/usr/lib/php --with-config-file-path=/etc --enable-gd-native-ttf
    # make
    # make install

    Make sure to backup the old php.ini file in /etc and *REMEMBER* that you
    will need to hack a couple of things to make PHP working correctly.
