Hey, this isn't perl..

if a session requires php.ini options, they'll still be used in php.ini. The
good thing, however, is that by moving extension from the main core lib, we
can pare down php.ini and only include useful statements. (generating it at
./configure is even better).

yes... again, it's not perl :) by moving stuff from php4/ext it only removes
it from core distribution. You would still be able to copy the extension
directory into the ext/ folder for your php source directory, and build the
configure again.
