Maybe this check should be in a phpize-generated configure script, so that new extensions will have it built-in? MANY bug reports and build issues, especially for newbies, are caused by a simple typo that this would catch, if I'm understanding what it does without actually trying it yet... And, hey, if it helps even the experienced developers do a bit of clean-up on old build scripts, that's a Good Thing too, imho. :-) Now if we could just get configure to HALT when an option that is enabled by default but is specified on the command line as well isn't available, so users aren't confused by it continuing to build something they didn't ask for in the first place... :-v -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
