Build multiple PHP versions

HOWTO:

1. Put this into /usr/bin or anywhere depending on your distro

2. Edit the file:
   Change PHP_REPO to location in which this script will clone the repo.
   In my case I clone http://git.php.net/repository/php-src.git into /home/repo/php-src
   so the script wont make outgoing request.

   Change TARGET_DIR (supplied to --prefix) to location in which all PHP versions will reside.

   Optionally update BUILD_OPTIONS, see http://php.net/manual/en/configure.about.php

3. Now you can build multiple PHP with:
   phpb 5.4.6
phpb 5.3.5

   See phpb list to see list of available releases.

TODO:

Added simple way to export the PATH of PHP version. This means switch between all installed version.
Meanwhile you can do Derick's way:

function pe () {
        version=$1
        shift

        if [ "$#" == "0" ]; then
                export PATH=/usr/local/php/${version}/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
        else
                PATH=/usr/local/php/${version}/bin:$PATH $@
        fi
}
