No, that's a totally different problem. phpize has no impact on the internal APIs and how things work in the engine or stream. Making bad things stream (and god knows how many of these things we already have) has a direct impact on every platform we support. Here it will be even worst as it will be on every platform+FS combination. It is pretty much the same as doing drivers specific things as the PDO level and make them look like being generic. Very very bad idea, obviously.
