No special things to do. One issue you might notice is that global http
vars are turned off by default (you know, the ones that show up at the end
of a get url like: http://myserver/script.php?var1=hello) and if you have
scripts using them you may need to turn that on in the
/usr/local/lib/php.ini file.
Also, some common function names for postgresql have been deprecated, so
you may need to edit all your pg_* functions in all your scripts. A
global search and replace utility can handle that.
