GD is now included as part of the PHP package.  I'd recommend 
recompiling and *not* disabling GD if you need to use it.  The PHP 
version isn't always the most up to date version though.  It might be a 
good idea to download it from http://www.boutell.com/gd and build it on 
your own, then tell PHP where it is in the configure step.
