pure dBase does not work since it's very poorly supported by PEAR DB. On 
Windows you you can create an ODBC connection to the dbase file and use 
ODBC connection for the XY layers. Or with better performance link the 
dbase in an MS Access file and load the Access file via ODBC. I don't 
know however if search works well on an MS Access database file, since 
MS Access does not fully support standard SQL.

If the dbase table is not very dynamic you can also create a shapefile 
out of it with very basic PHP functions (the examples under PHP 
Mapscript contain a script for this), also possible to run in a cron job 
to do this if necessary.
