Okay, I've figured out that PHP_ADD_EXTENSION_DEP is supposed to be used

The HAVE_SOCKETS symbol is defined in <main/php_config.h>, if PHP is

But if sockets is built as a separate package, then we have no
HAVE_SOCKETS symbol at compilation time. I guess some OS distributions,
having no support of per-package configuration, provide separate
packages like "php-sockets".
Thus, making "sockets" required doesn't solve the issue at all.
Probably I can fix it by defining HAVE_SOCKETS manually in my config.m4:
if test "$PHP_EVENT_SOCKETS" != "no"; then
AC_CHECK_HEADERS([$phpincludedir/ext/sockets/php_sockets.h], ,
[
AC_MSG_ERROR([Couldn't find
$phpincludedir/sockets/php_sockets.h. Please check if sockets extension
installed])
]
)
PHP_ADD_EXTENSION_DEP(event, sockets)
AC_DEFINE(PHP_EVENT_SOCKETS, 1, [Whether sockets extension is

Compile-time checks for other extensions are only relevant for static
builds. Once you go to shared extensions the availability at compile
time tells *nothing* about runtime. (An extension might be installed
only for one SAPI or PHP might run CLI with -n or ...)
You can check for the required headers in your m4 and prevent building
the extension if not available but aside from that any further check
gains nothing practical.

Let's note, that no code can use sockets' API until HAVE_SOCKETS defined.
Thus, sockets' API is not available, if PHP is built with --disable-sockets.
Then it doesn't matter whether we installed sockets separately. The
header code
is just not available. So what should we do? The only answer I see is to
define
HAVE_SOCKETS ourselves manually. Isn't it?
It even might be normal, if we had a macro able to determine whether
sockets ext.
is installed. Let's imagine the pear installer modified/added some C
header file
which is included in some common header like main/php_config.h. Then we
might use
some macro which might try to include/compile and eventually determine
whether
we have sockets extension installed.
Different ini-files. Yes, it is a problem. Another one. But we already have
such kind of run-time check for the required extensions.
