Best way to install PHP 5.3 without disrupting current 5.2 on Apache

Hello all,

I'm looking for the best way to install PHP 5.3 on Mac OSX with Apache. It's
my development machine, and I've already got 5.2.4 running smoothly (with
MacPorts). I'd like to keep developing with 5.2.4, but I'm very interested
in trying out some of the new features of 5.3.

When I downloaded and installed the 5.3 snapshot, the new apache module
overwrote the old one. Any ideas? Is there some way to install the new
module in a different spot and then tell apache to differentiate between
them?

Thanks,

Michael
