I don't understand the last senctence, to be true. But I have another good
reason which will hinder that:
"Phars support compression using gzip if the zlib extension is present, and
using bzip2 if the bz2 extension is present."
As far as I know that are two different compression formats!? So you need to
handle three types of archives. Are you going to provide three versions of
every archive?
