The problem happenes then the apxs tool (of the apache package) is called.
The apxs tool is responsible for the installation and activation of  httpd modules; while installation can be relocated correctly, activation is implemented by direct editing of the configuration file (httpd.conf).

If not considered, this causes an issue when relocating the installation using INSTALL_ROOT (input is not found, and there is no way to specify an alternative output channel).

I'll work on a fix to submit to the PHP project.
If you want a workaround Right Now (TM), you can remove the "-a" option during configuration using the attached patch, to be applied from the top source directory of PHP, using:

patch < filename.diff

Note that this means that you should enable the installed php module in httpd.conf yourself!

I am using Mac OS X 10.3.9 and I'm trying to install PHP 5.1.4 in /usr. The flags I passed to sourceinstall were:

Dans-Mac:/Volumes/dod/dan/Downloads/php-5.1.4 ness$ sudo sourceinstall -Q -a  ./ -p /usr -C --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs -C --with-mysql -C --with-libxml-dir=/sw
spawn: /bin/cp -R /Volumes/dod/dan/Downloads/php-5.1.4 /Users/ness/.sourceinstall/build
spawn: ./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-mysql --with-libxml-dir=/sw --prefix=/usr

At the end of the install I got these error messages:

spawn: /usr/bin/make -f makefile install INSTALL_ROOT=/Users/ness/.sourceinstall/install-destdir
/usr/bin/make: Installing PHP SAPI module:       apache2handler
/usr/bin/make: /usr/share/httpd/build/instdso.sh SH_LIBTOOL='/usr/share/httpd/build/libtool' libs/libphp5.so /Users/ness/.sourceinstall/install-destdir/usr/libexec/apache2
/usr/bin/make: /usr/share/httpd/build/libtool --mode=install cp libs/libphp5.so /Users/ness/.sourceinstall/install-destdir/usr/libexec/apache2/

/usr/bin/make: Assuming installing a .so rather than a libtool archive.
/usr/bin/make: make: * [install-sapi] Error 1
sourceinstall: warning [add_package]: test installation reports a fatal error
spawn: /bin/rm -fr /Users/ness/.sourceinstall/build

sourceinstall: error [main]: action failed

A normal ./configure && make && make install works successfully.

Thanks,
