For those who aren't click-happy, it is worth looking at.  The Caucho
guys have implemented a PHP 5 engine called Quercus in 100% java (*no* C
code from zend/php core is used) that runs on their app server, Resin.
They have 3 major PHP 5 apps running on it: MediaWiki, Mantis and
Drupal.  The set of extensions implemented isn't nearly complete, but it
is an impressive start.  See:

    http://wiki.caucho.com/Quercus
(The latter is a link into their dogbowl installation of MediaWiki
running on Quercus)

Pretty hot.
