Hello,
Thank you to the following folks who responded:

The suggestions I received included:
Create our own packages - see:
http://www.sunfreeware.com/pkgadd.html
The PHP PEAR repository, specifically the clone of the PERL Net::LDAP
module at:
http://pear.php.net/package/Net_LDAP
Consider the amount of vonerability announcements for PHP - one
responder is considering going from PHP to PERL.
Request a PHP/LDAP package from Steve of sunfreeware.
Steve from sunfreeware has said he can create an experimental package
for PHP/LDAP that we can test - we're going to do this, and also
look into the other PEAR options
Thanks to everyone who responded, and so quickly.
MY initial question is below:

Subject: PHP with LDAP support, as a package
hello all,
We're looking into switching from PERL CGIs to php, and wondering what other
Sun managers are doing for php (prefer 4, but am willing to consider 5) with
LDAP support, as a package? This will be for Solaris 8 and 9, mostly on sparc.
We are currently using SunFreeware for our other packaging, however the
SunFreeware php5 package does not offer an LDAP option. I see BlastWave does
offer php with LDAP, but we would probably need to move our Apache2 package to
BlastWave as well. Of course I can compile php from source (link against Sun's
directory server 5.1? or Open LDAP?) but it would be nice to standardize on
packages.
Rather than get stuck in analysis paralysis, I figured I'd inquire with
folks here and see how others are managing their production php on Solaris.
Thanks all for any feedback,
Ivan Fetch.
