You might be able to create a modified XBitHack Apache module which, 
essentially checks to see if the a file has the "x" (execute) bit set 
under permissions. If so, then it parses the file, if not, then it 
displays as a regular html file. This is normally used for server side 
includes, but you could probably modify the script to execute it as a 
php file instead.
