Summary: Undefined symbols with libxml2

New Comment:
Issue still exists in 5.x trunk from SVN.
The solution is simple: in the Makefile, on the line where
"libs/libphp$(PHP_MAJOR_VERSION).bundle:" appears, the $(MH_BUNDLE_FLAGS)
variable should be called after "$(CFLAGS_CLEAN) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS)
$(EXTRA_LDFLAGS)" so that the hard-coded "/usr/lib" search path is searched
after any user-provided search paths given during configure.
For example, the Makefile currently contains this passage:
"MH_BUNDLE_FLAGS = -bundle -bundle_loader /usr/sbin/httpd -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib
-laprutil-1 -lsqlite3 -lexpat -liconv -L/usr/lib -lapr-1 -lpthread"
...which sets library search paths as '/usr/lib'.
Further below:
"libs/libphp$(PHP_MAJOR_VERSION).bundle: $(PHP_GLOBAL_OBJS) $(PHP_SAPI_OBJS)
$(CC) $(MH_BUNDLE_FLAGS) $(CFLAGS_CLEAN) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS)
$(EXTRA_LDFLAGS) $(PHP_GLOBAL_OBJS:.lo=.o) $(PHP_SAPI_OBJS:.lo=.o)
$(PHP_FRAMEWORKS) $(EXTRA_LIBS) $(ZEND_EXTRA_LIBS) -o $@ && cp $@
libs/libphp$(PHP_MAJOR_VERSION).so"
...demonstrates that the '-L/usr/lib' from $MH_BUNDLE_FLAGS is given priority
and will be searched before the '-L/custom/paths' contained in the variables
immediately following it. This is likely not the intended behaviour, since it
circumvents the user's intentions when passing library search paths to the
configure script.
What should be found in the Makefileâwhich will resolve this issueâis the
following:
"libs/libphp$(PHP_MAJOR_VERSION).bundle: $(PHP_GLOBAL_OBJS) $(PHP_SAPI_OBJS)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS_CLEAN) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) $(EXTRA_LDFLAGS)
$(MH_BUNDLE_FLAGS) $(PHP_GLOBAL_OBJS:.lo=.o) $(PHP_SAPI_OBJS:.lo=.o)
$(PHP_FRAMEWORKS) $(EXTRA_LIBS) $(ZEND_EXTRA_LIBS) -o $@ && cp $@
libs/libphp$(PHP_MAJOR_VERSION).so"
Can anyone with autotools and PHP build process familiarity comment on any
possible repercussions from this minor and logical change?

Jani.
Adding /lib was the only way i got it working.. otherwise it skipped those dirs
and kep hamerring /usr/lib which is the next in line, like here:
cc -bundle -bundle_loader /Applications/Server/Apache2/bin/httpd -L/usr/lib
-L/usr/lib -laprutil-1...
What i have been doing to compile succesfully is altering to this
cc -bundle -bundle_loader /Applications/Server/Apache2/bin/httpd -L/opt/xml/lib
-L/opt/local/lib -L/usr/lib -L/usr/lib -laprutil-1...
This was gwyne's suggestion and it works great.
After I enabled OpenSSL i got evem more of these, hence the /opt/local/lib i
also placed there.
As for versions, i have reproduced these today on:
PHP_5_3, PHP_5_2 and trunk, straight from SVN
I'm rdohms on php.pecl if you want to chat about this

And if you change the version, add a note about it. Now there's no way
to know what version you reported this with, what version it works
with..etc.

Remove the /lib from those paths. "rdohms at gmail dot com": Where did
you get the idea it's okay to pass that anywhere?!

actualy sorry.
I had --with-libxml-dir declared.
Tried running it with --enable-xmlreader-/opt/xml/lib, just like the above
setting and it broke on the same place as before.
