[ale] DB abstraction for PHP

[Christopher Bergeron]

PHP has it's own pseduo-abstraction DB layers built in.  Depending on 
how you build php, you can build it with:
mysql support:  --with-mysql
sqlserver:  --with-sybase (i think; definately double czech this one)
oracle: not sure; but i _know_ it's possible
prostgres:  --with-pgsql

I had a nightmare of a build trying to build php with DB2, sybase, 
mysql, flash, pdf, GD, ssl, ldap, etc... but it was a hell of a learning 
experience.  PHP is a _great_ language, and once you get it built right, 
the db interfacing is cakewalk...
