A quick follow-up to this - my version of "phpize" creates config.sub by 
invoking "libtoolize".  It may be that your version of phpize is 
perfectly up-to-date, but libtoolize is broken in some way.

You can check this by entering php4/xapian/, and running "libtoolize -f 
-c".  This should create a config.sub.

Check that you've got libtool version 1.5 (or later) installed.
