This is a problem hurting me for a while and I'm happy you're looking into it! I'm not sure about the solution here, though. This solution assumes * the extension is inside extension_dir and * a specific naming scheme on the extension's shared library file. Both assumptions might be wrong and might lead to loading the wrong file when different ones are around. This will also lead to a misleading error message ("PHP Warning: Module 'foo' already loaded in Unknown on line 0") where the users just tries to load it once in wrong order. I'm not sure this is better than completely offloading it to the user, as we do now. johannes
