note 95898 added to ifx.installation

As of PHP-5.1.0 informix support was moved to PECL and removed from the PHP bundle, thus --with-informix is no longer a valid configuration command. http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pecl/informix/ Contains the latest informix package. For *NIX machines: 1) Download each file into the same directory 2) cd to that directory 3) phpize 4) ./configure 5) make 6) make install 7) move the generated informix.so file to your php modules directory 8) add extension=informix.so to php.ini 9) add [Informix] section to php.ini file with defintions 10) restart Apache check phpinfo() for 'informix' with the details similar to: informix
