Just a thought - have you considered making the basic requirements for PHP/MySQL/whatever that of Debian's stable release? I'm running 1.1.0 on it now faultlessly. I don't recall the exact version numbers off the top of my head, but it sounds similar to those below. It certainly works, anyway - my thought being that a lot of folk run stable on their server, and it's about as far behind as is reasonable.
Actually I've got a Debian Woody setup tucked away precisely for checking that Debian's _really old_ shipped versions of things don't explode too horribly. :)
The main remaining failure on Debian is that texvc can't be compiled with the version of ocaml they ship. I don't know squat about ocaml so don't have a clue how to fix it...
