I thought we had this problem nailed? There used to be a problem with phpize
when building a module with the pear command. However, I think the solution
had to do with the library location or something like that. (Building
extensions manually generally worked on the systems.)

phpize prepares the build for the installed version of php. It is installed
if you build php yourself. Else you need the php-dev rpm. I've heard that
phpize does not work with automake 1.8.

PEAR packages do not need to be built as they are merely a collection of php
script files.
PECL packages, however, are php extensions and therefore need a build system
in place. For more help related to your problem, please adress
pecl-dev@lists.php.net as they manage all the pecl stuff.
