Excellent, worked, many thanks for the primer. In fact, here's a 
INSTALL patch:

[root at imp4 docs]# cat INSTALL.patch1
--- INSTALL.orig        2004-11-05 14:07:56.275608078 -0500
+++ INSTALL     2004-11-05 14:08:58.026806682 -0500

     system as PEAR, so the configuration/setup is essentially identical 
to the
     PEAR instructions above.

+   When you install a PECL extension, you have to add it to your
+   php.ini so it gets loaded.  Add the following line to your php.ini
+   file to load the extension (I'm assuming the extension is installed 
in

     These PECL modules are **RECOMMENDED** to be installed:

     a. fileinfo
