Our solution is to store environment-specific config data (such as DB name, username, password, etc.) in the Apache config:
SetEnv DB_USER=kermit
SetEnv DB_PASS=Shhh
And then connect to the DB using code such as:
mysql_connect(getenv('DB_NAME'), getenv('DB_USER'), getenv('DB_PASS'))
Environmental config data should never be stored in source code.
