[maplab-users] MapLab doesn't work!

I'm aware of the earlier threads, but I couldn't find any specific
details about the workaround fix to get php4.3.1 to work correctly.  So,
because php4.3.2rc1 was just released, I went ahead and installed it and
it appears that the problem has been corrected.
Thanks
