I'm working on a patch to bring in this functionality, out of sheer "I need to learn more about autoconf and I want to contribute to PHP"- ness :). Does anyone have any thoughts on what might go into such a summary?

Something like: GD Support Yes Bundled PNG Yes JPEG No GIF R/W Yes PDO Support Yes PDO Mysql Yes PDO Sqlite Bundled Yes ... Maybe with the version found and used, but it could make the summary unreadable :)

So far, I have install prefix, SAPI, debug on/off, things of that simple nature. Also, any thoughts on whether the summary should be printed from configure itself or config.status?

I think it may require some additional macros. These macros can be called from the extension to set the key/value pairs to display. Good luck and don't hesitate to harass the list until you get it working, this is something I was waiting for since way too long (and being lazy ;) Cheers, --Pierre
