libphp5.so doesn't work out of the box anymore. It is effectively
deprecated, and the fact that it's still on the wiki page is simply due
to the wiki not being constantly updated.

I use php-fpm and mod_proxy_fcgi as the simplest "just works" setup. See
the Apache wiki page and use the SetHandler version of the setup.
