This is forwarded from Ubuntu: https://launchpad.net/bugs/658346 In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following: Quoting from the original bug report: > Please configure PHP with Process Control support [1], which can be > very useful. > > While it makes sense for CLI already, it is also useful for for CGI. See > http://www.dotdeb.org/2010/03/08/php-5-3-2-is-available-too/#comment-2274 > for some reasoning (where I was arguing to have it in the dotdeb > repository, which has it enabled for CLI only). > > 1: http://de.php.net/manual/en/pcntl.installation.php * debian/rules: --enable-pcntl for cgi as well. (LP: #658346) The normal concerns one might have over pcntl are mitigated as CGI runs in its own process space. So the reasons for not turning this on in libapache2-mod-php5 are not really necessary for CGI, especially since CGI has dl() available.
