Using oracle together with PHP and redhat

I've been trying to get Linux+apache+php+oracle working here with no success, so I've to ask for some help.

Versions:
RedHat 9.0
PHP 4.3.4RC1
Oracle Enterprise Server 9.2.x
Oracle client 8.1.7

The machine has to run RedHat, and newest version would be good. Oracle9.x doesn't seem to be certified for RedHat9 but I've found guides on how to get it running and it works. PHP is compiled with --with-oci8 against the Oracle9.x server, the compilation works but PHP does not. I've set env values in httpd.conf together with the mod_env module without any success, probably because there are no oracle 9 support. I've read that you can use the Oracle 8.x client against a 9.x database and compile PHP against that client instead, but the installation just hangs with a gray window and 100% CPU usage. I've read that it could help to change window manager to fvwm but no success.

Any help to either get PHP using Oracle9 or installing Oracle8 on RedHat9 would be appreciated.
It would be good if any answers where cced/sent directly to my e-mail address.
