An installed LAMP server, as in /opt/lampp/bin/mysql, etc etc, totally ignoring the native install. and yes, I'd prefer to see nginx, postgres and C, but let's get a bit real about it. I've got conspiracy theorists objecting to nginx because it's russian, a majority of devs objecting to postgres as they can't see the difference between a RDBMS and flat files, and have to keep all logic in the app layer ( like we did in the '80's??? ), and, well, pointers! Not too bothered about the lang part - after all they're all the same in the end... I can't get worked up about PHP - it does the job, and well if you've got some self-discipline. I've used processors where you couldn't use register 3 because it was broken (philips SMR2), had to get my head around 3 byte integers (Harris), and had to use Fortran 2 which didn't have any IO capability built in (ICL 1706). Now they were sub-par development environments.
