I'd go with older versions for Slackware 10.2.

Apache 2.x and PHP 4.4.x play pretty well together. If you must kludge
HORDE to work with PHP 5.x, you're asking for trouble when PHP 5.x+1
changes something to break the kludge.

If it was me, that's what I'd do. I might go with Apache 2.mumble,
though. Prebuilt binaries can be had at
