I think what your problem really is that you are trying to use Apple's copy 
of Apache, instead of MAMP's copy. 
Where MAMP's copy of Apache is listening on port 8888, while Apple's bundled 
copy is running on the default port 80. You have two web servers running 
simultaneously and you just need to pick the right one.

You could simply add the port specification to the URL of the site you are 
developing.

If you are trying to access
http://localhost/something

load it as

http://localhost:8888/something

That might actually work in your case, because Apple provides PHP 5.2.12 for 
Leopard users, which is only slightly newer than your MAMP-installed copy of 
PHP 5.2.11.

So they both should be using the same "no-debug-non-zts-20060613" interface.

PHP 5.3.x, bundled with Snow Leopard, would require a rebuild for 
"no-debug-non-zts-20090626" modules.
