Thanks for the replies guys.

As a few have eluded to, Apache is working fine.

What I've done is completely uninstalled, made clean from source,
reinstalled and verified that the options were such that apache
support is built into PHP and Apache. Here's what I've found:

Apache seems to be compiled with the proper PHP support:

blackbox:~ jlixfeld$ telnet ricky 80

PHP seems to want to compile against the proper Apache libs as can be
seen from the make | grep -i apache and the make install:

Someone mentioned setting the php.ini up so it could display errors in
the browser. How do I go about that? My php.ini looks like this. I
don't see errors in there when I try to hit the phpinfo file with the
browser, but I do get the error I reported in the OP which is a
cronjob running wget on something that complains about pcre (which is
a mystery in and of itself considering pcre is a installed properly
too :|
