We are using eGroupware, now in 1.4 RC2, this application is mainly developed
for php 5, it supports php 4, but im getting errors with php4 that the
developers identify with a php bug.

Well, this server is our main server it does ldap services, smtp, imap, and
file services, i'm not sure to upgrade it without problem .... i prefer to
build php5 from source, but it will be easier if a src rom could be used .

Is possible to have both installed php4 from the sles and php5 built from
source?

Many Thanks
