It's been awhile since I built apache or php but I don't think you 
actually have to rebuild apache; you just need to let php know about the 
apache that will be running the php module.

If you are running apache-1.3.x include this in the php ./configure
     --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs

If you are running apache-2.x include this in the php ./configure
     --with-apxs2=/usr/sbin/apxs

Hope that is helpful,
