While I don't have the full time to answer everything, this gets both a +1 and a -1 from me. Great idea, but PECL doesn't work everywhere, for example I believe OSX does not yet support it (that being my main platform of concern).

If someone gives me an account on an OSX box (or even better, puts an OSX box into my mailbox! ;-) I will make it work.

Talk to Marko (Markonen on IRC). His is on a more permanent connection than mine, plus he's in a relatively same time zone as you, which should make things easier ;)

For more information on this see an email from Marko Karripinen from July 26th 2002 detailing the original idea/method for doing this. It has been since toned down a bit, but follows the same idea.

You're missing the point :-)

Nope, I'm not. If you remember I said I'm +1 and -1 for this. The minus one being the statements said before. I don't believe jumping into using PECL without a start of a secure binary distribution method is a wise idea. And by start I mean an actual working template. But I do agree that movement forward on PECL is going to need a drastic step (i.e. what you're suggesting).
