 Rather than open up the unstable branch for all programs, I opted to install everything else from stable binaries and build php from source.  One advantage to using php as a cgi program is that I can upgrade Apache without having to rebuild php.  One drawback is that performance speed is degraded. Rather than open up the unstable branch for all programs, I opted to install everything else from stable binaries and build php from source.  One advantage to using php as a cgi program is that I can upgrade Apache without having to rebuild php.  One drawback is that performance speed is degraded.

 +===== Apple's php binary =====
 +**It should be noted that the php binary included with Mac OS X is only a cli build (command line interface).  You cannot complete the steps below using this binary.  In order for the steps below to work, you must compile a php binary from source - in cgi mode, not cli.**
 +
 +**The frustrating error that may show up if you try to use the wrong binary is an Internal Server Error from apache.  The log might say "premature end of script headers."  Since your php binary wasn't built with cgi enabled, it doesn't generate proper html code, but rather plain text to be read in a terminal.  The initial response from a proper cgi binary of php should contain "Content-type: xxxx/xxxx"**
