I have been unable to get an 8i client to install and/or run on RH9.
Not that I"m a guru in that regard, but I have spent some hours trying.
And like you, I've been able to find NO help anywhere on this topic.

I don't know anything about PHP, so I can't help you with compiling
it against 9i.

But you could try this (horrible) kludge:
install the 9i client, then make symlinks to the various 9i shared
libs that are named the same as the 8i version of that lib. This
may allow you to get PHP running. Or maybe not. I did it once upon
a time for a different app, and it appeared to be working, given 
limited testing. But you can be sure Oracle isn't going to support it!
