I don't think I even have a $_SERVER["include_path"], I certainly
wouldn't count on it pointing to the php binary.  As another user
pointed out, `which php` is probably the safest way.

If you are concerned about a simple method for clients, a quick bash
script which finds php and adds the appropriate line to the top of the
file would be simple.  Getting them to install a webpage to find out
where the php binary is seems excessive.

The logging directives including CustomLog can't be set in the .htaccess
file.  You can set it in the server config or in a virtual host config.

You can use the CGI executable to execute shell scripts however you will
get http headers like Content-type: and HTML versions of output from a
few functions such as phpinfo.
You can't execute scripts using the Apache module.
