[Chameleon] Problem with chameleon and php 5.1.1

[Jeff McKenna]

It's not surprising that php5 causes that error with your ms4w because 
the phpmapscript binaries that are in ms4w are compiled for use with 
php4x.  I wouldn't recommend upgrading to php5 unless you absolutely 
need a feature in php5.

As you noted, you can use that php5 mapscript download to upgrade your 
mapscript binaries in your ms4w.

I can't speak for any Chameleon affects of using php5.  Personally, 
stick with the default ms4w.
