There is one way that is recommended:
http://shop.blueonyx.it/blueonyx/system/php.html

That ensures that nothing breaks and you stay within a supported path 
for the purposes of obtaining help.

Amazon doesn't ship to where you are?  :P

Unless your server is ancient, you may want to consider 5108R instead. 
   We've benched 32 & 64 bit versions of BlueOnyx on identical hardware, 
and 64-bit outperforms every time.   Just my 2 cents...  if your 
hardware is an obsolete old P3 or something, then that's not going to be 
an option for you.
