Thanks Ralf. I'll take a look at this, but it won't be today as
I'm in month-end mode.
Will you be updating the Release 2.2 versions of apache and php to include
these since they don't work by default?
Speaking of PEAR and php, there are a couple of pear modules that are
necessary for the horde family, notably Log and Date, which aren't in the
basic PEAR build. So far, I've just cheated and installed them from the
command line without building packages since I'm pretty ignorant about
php/pearish things (I've been spending most of my time recently getting up
to speed on python, Zope, and Plone).
