Bug Description

Binary package hint: php5

Please configure PHP with Process Control support [1], which can be very useful.

While it makes sense for CLI already, it is also useful for for CGI. See http://www.dotdeb.org/2010/03/08/php-5-3-2-is-available-too/#comment-2274 for some reasoning (where I was arguing to have it in the dotdeb repository, which has it enabled for CLI only).

Re-opening. It is not compiled in according to:
    php5-cgi -m|grep -i pcntl

Also looking at debian/rules, it is only used in configure-cli-stamp.
