As per the subject - now available from http://smedley.info/os2ports.html

 From www.php.net - What is PHP?
PHP  is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is 
especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.

 From readme.os2:
PHP5 OS/2 port - v5.1.2 - beta 1

This is a quick port of PHP v5.1.2 to OS/2.  Currently only the cgi & 
cli versions of PHP are included.  I do not yet have Apache modules.

This is built with Innotek GCC v3.3.5 and requires libc06.dll 
(available from ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/libc-0.6.0-ga2.zip).

This has not been extensively tested, but has been running on 
smedley.info with Apache2 2.2.0 (also built with libc06) for the last 
month or so.  Whilst there is no apache module, running the cgi 
php.exe with a shared php5.dll does not result in any significant 
performance deterioration (IMHO).

Patches for thread support and detection of php.ini in c:\mptn\etc 
have been included in the executable largely based on Brian Havard's 
patched for PHP 4.3.1

I have included support for some external modules - curl, dbase, gd, 
gettext, mbstring & pdo_mysql are loadable as shared modules.  Now 
that I've nutted out how to do this, other databases will be added as 
time permits, with those that people request to be given priority.

Note that for some reason, the sue of pdo_mysql seems to also required 
libc06b2.dll which is available from 
ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/wvgui/libc06b2.zip

PHP 5.1.2 has problems detecting the timezone in OS/2 - to workaround 
this, and set the default in your php.ini you need to add 
date.timezone simular to what is shown below in context.  You can get 
the timezones supported in the php.ini from : 
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php

[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
date.timezone = Australia/Adelaide

As always, any feedback to paulDESPAM@DESPAMsmedley.info is 
appreciated.  It's really nice to hear of people using my ports!

Cheers,
