Well, I've now rebuilt the RHEL SRPM with mssql support. It's now built
in the openSUSE Build Service at:

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=php53&project=home%3Ajohnberanek%3Aphp53_centos

Not ideal in that it's the while php53 SRPM, and additionally because
OBS is currently building with CentOS 5.5 instead of 5.6. The latter
issue has brought me to raise a bug in the OBS Bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=687848
Update CentOS build to 5.6

Installed my built PHP 5.3 RPMs on the machine I wanted them on -
painful! Why do you need to remove the PHP 5.1 RPMs before you can
install the 'php53' ones, surely the php53 RPMs could have had
"Deprecated" lines!?

John.
