6) Put none and point the users to pecl.php.net and pecl4win.php.net

An extension is bundled, available through pecl or both. It is not a
joke to fetch extension from pecl42win. We are also working on some
improvements on the win32 extension build process (see the ML
archive).

All in all, I see no reason to bundled a bunch of extensions that we
don't support anyway (the php qa/core team). That does not mean they
are bot useable or safe, only that we don't support them through php
releases.
