nope, and that's what I wanted to let you know - I know that feeling  
of loneliness too well :D

Not before someone who knows this works for them will confirm that the  
symbols are in fact included in their http.so module.

While I can look back on 30+ years of software development experience,  
I still find many new and interesting subjects every day. PHP is  
amongst those that are rather new to me, but not as interesting as to  
justify spending days on learning how pecl modules are to be built  
properly ;) So all I'm willing to offer is sending a qualified report  
to the maintainer, which is based on a confirmation that I should  
actually see those constants via "grep" - else I'll make a fool of  
myself and waste the precious time of the maintainer...

Jan, could you jump in with a result of that grep from a functional machine?

Regards,
Jens
