I am not sure it will really help, but what if you remove every instance of "=shared" in your configure line ?

For example, here is an configure command I've used some time ago *(as given by phpinfo)* :

$ /usr/local/php-5.1.6/bin/php -i | grep 'configure'
Configure Command =>  './configure' '--prefix=/usr/local/php-5.1.6' '--with-config-file-path=/etc/php-5.1.6' 
  '--with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2' '--disable-ipv6' '--with-openssl' '--with-zlib' '--enable-bcmath' 
  '--with-bz2' '--with-curl' '--enable-exif' '--enable-ftp' '--with-gd' '--with-ttf' 
  '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-imap-ssl' '--with-ldap' '--enable-mbstring' '--with-mcrypt' 
  '--with-mhash' '--with-mysql' '--with-mysqli' '--enable-pcntl' '--with-pdo-mysql' '--with-pdo-sqlite' 
  '--enable-shmop' '--enable-soap' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-sqlite-utf8' '--with-xmlrpc' 
  '--with-xsl' '--with-pear'

(newlines added for the sake of readability)

Does it help ?
