php/php-src — reverse-engineered prompt

I want a working local build of PHP from this source repo so I can run the interpreter from the command line and verify it passes its basic tests.

Please figure out what my machine needs, install or document any missing build tools, generate the build files, configure it with sensible defaults for development, compile it, and run the test suite. If something fails, fix whatever is reasonable in the build setup and try again. When you’re done, tell me exactly how to run the built PHP binary, where it lives, and anything I should know about using the development versus production config files.

If there are platform specific differences, detect my environment and do the right thing instead of making me choose. Keep changes minimal and focused on getting this repo built cleanly. A short summary of what you changed and any commands I may want later would be great. Look up current docs online if you need to.
