Hello Oliver,

  we are discussing situations where make is no option here. Everone that
hasmake as an option and all tools available can always easily do:
pecl install <extension>

Without the pear or pecl commandyou can also simply download the pecl
extension package and do the following:
tar -x <package>
phpize
./configure
make
make install

Also still easy enough.

However this is in many situation not possible at all. For once it is
impossible if you are using a shared server.

best regards
masrcus
