It seems that configure puts the "-lsocket" option BEFORE the option
"-lmysqlclient" . This will produce the following link error:

'getservbyname'first referenced in file modules/php3/modphp3.

>How-To-Repeat:
Try to embed php3 module, then try to re-link httpd
>Fix:
Put -lsocket AFTER the -lmysqlclient; linking will work
