In netuse.lists.linux-kernel you write:

phttpd used to be available from Signum Systems, Linkoeping
(*1), Sweden (http://www.signum.se/phttpd/). The company offered
professional support for free software.

Signum has been bought out by a company named Cendio Systems
(http://www.cenido.se). phttpd is now being maintained by Roland
Kaltefleiter of NetUSE GmbH, Germany (for which I happen to
work).

>From ftp://ftp.lysator.liu.se/pub/unix/phttpd/README:

------
Phttpd is a lightweight and fast World Wide Web server that uses
techniquies like multithreading, dynamic linking and mmap() for
machines running Sun's Solaris 2 operating system.

(Preferrable Solaris 2.4 or newer).

It is currently being maintained by Roland Kaltefleiter, and the
latest version can be downloaded from:

(*1) Linkoeping is also the home of another popular, free
software webserver, Roxen (http://www.roxen.com). Not
bad for a small scandinavian town. Who says that it must be
Operating Systems all the time?
