[ciapug] Error handling

[Jerry Heiselman]

Yeah, this was when I noticed the problem on the Solaris machine. 
Something went wrong during my build that caused this exact behavior. 
It seemed like PHP was completely ignoring the php.ini file and just
using defaults all of the time.  I remember searching around on the
news groups, but only found other people complaining of the same
thing.  I rebuilt the package and that seemed to fix it.
