Tried to add mcrypt, now having problems adding ming/mcrypt/

Hello,

I tried to use /script/easyapache to recompile php with mcrypt support and I think I screwed up something in the process.

Before I began I did a &php -m&, which gave me the following:
xml
standard
sockets
session
posix
pcre
mysql
ming
imap
gd
ftp
ctype
calendar
bcmath
zlib

Then I ran the easyapache script and chose option 2 - Basic install with mcrypt. Upon completion of the compile steps, a &php -m& gave me:
xml
standard
sockets
session
posix
pcre
mysql
mcrypt
ftp
ctype
calendar
bcmath
zlib

I now had mcrypt support but no ming/imap/gd!

Then I ran the script again and chose option 5 Advanced
and then chose:
* User bandwidth leech protection
* Bytes logging Module
* Frontpage Module
* Raise HARD_SERVER_LIMIT
* Rewrite Module
* SSL Module
* suEXEC Module

also selected
PHP Modules --& and choose all the defaults plus mcrypt/ming/gd (and any other that were there b4 I began)

This time upon completion I get this error.

&Sorry, I was not able to diagnose which libmcrypt version you have installed& and then the compile process stops and now php -m shows:
xml
standard
sockets
session
posix
pcre
mysql
ftp
ctype
calendar
bcmath
zlib

And no matter what I do I keep getting errors and end up back here.

I've searched google, webhostingtalk, these forums, and php.net.
But nothing I have tried from these sites work. (even have the help desk of much respected hosting company stumped) I'm at my wits end plz help.

I'm running buildapache.sea for the first time on a new box that just had a default build. I also am getting the libmcrypt error when trying to install it. This is the first time I've had this issue on my servers. The only difference between this server and the last is that the previous server had 5.3R6 and this one is 5.3R56.
