Off-topic: Perhaps its time to look at alternatives and unbundle pear
instead of only seeimly (at a quick glance) keeping it alive for newer
PHP compatibility, which seems to have the main case for the last
couple of years. We had issues with pear releases at close to every
larger release in close to 10 years.

We have alternatives like pickle[1] thats fairly new or I'm sure we
can develop a tool capable of managing PECL extensions.
