Rebuilding php with mssql fails on x86_64

[Jay Lee <jlee pbu edu>]

I'm attempting to rebuild the php RPMS in order to generate a php-mssql 
rpm that I need on a x86_64 AS box.  I've already downloaded the latest 
freetds package and built/installed the freetds and freetds-devel RPMS.  
But php's configure script isn't looking in the right spot for the libtds.a:

$ rpmbuild --rebuild --define '_with_mssql 1' 
/var/spool/up2date/php-4.3.9-3.2.src.rpm
<snip>
checking for MSSQL support via FreeTDS... yes, shared
configure: error: Could not find /usr/lib/libtds.a

Looks to me like PHP's configure is hard coded to look in 
FREETDS_INSTALLATION_DIR/lib instead of lib and/or lib64 
($FREETDS_INSTALLATION_DIR resolves to /usr).  Any suggestions or should 
I file a bugzilla?  Any body successfully built php-mssql.x86_64 on RHEL4?
