New install of 1.6.3+ fails to begin

Just fetched the newest 1.6 Moodle through CVS but I can't even get the first installation screen when Moodle goes to install.php. Each time I try, I get a log entry

PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare xmlize() (previously declared in /Library/WebServer/Documents/moodle/lib/xmlize.php:46) in /Library/WebServer/Documents/moodle16/lib/xmlize.php on line 70

Hello Robert,

That seems to be a problem with the PHP version. I've seen that happen with moodle and languages other than english.

My suggestion is to try the exact recommended PHP version with the latest 1.7 version of moodle.

Good luck
Hugo

Thanks for trying to be helpful but suggesting to install 1.7 when I am trying to install 1.6 is missing the point. a) if I wanted 1.7, I would be installing it, b) 1.6 installation should continue to work even if development focus is moved to 1.7 and 1.8.

I got a private comment from someone who fetched a 1.6 version a week or so earlier. It worked fine. He upgraded around same time as me and encountered possibly same problem as me, so he rolled back.

I did not get to see even the initial welcome page, so I couldn't choose the installation language.
