I've found that on a RedHat system, the 'locate' command does a pretty
good job of tracking things down. Very few linux programs seem to have
any provision for uninstalling unless they come in a binary package
like RPMs.

That is correct. You would need to either tell Apache not to load it's
PHP modules or not to use them. I believe the Apache docs say how to
use the external PHP instead, which it -looks- like you've done, above.

I think that's your issue. Maybe try a different source for the PHP
package? Find a different version and see if it installs?
You can look through the 'make' file to get some clue about what
acctually happens when you do 'make install', then un-do it manually,
but I don't think your problem is uninstalling, it's that hang on
installation.
Having installed from RPM's, I don't really know what your options are,
but can you try the Apache internal PHP handler and see if you get the
same error? If so, can you try re-compiling the Apache PHP modules?
(I belive the directions are on the Apache web site.)
