You could make your own extension.. in order to write them (Because
after writting one you realize you need more) you should be using
either that book by Sara:
http://www.amazon.com/dp/067232704X?tag=libssh2projec-20&camp=14573&creative=327641&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=067232704X&adid=01HQSM6RF0V2X97Y0VPW&

Or

Start by reading:

http://devzone.zend.com/article/1021-Extension-Writing-Part-I-Introduction-to-PHP-and-Zend

And I would probably direct you towards pecl-dev@lists.php.net

The reason I am mentioning to make your own extension is to save you
the hassle of migrating from a version to another. If you make your
extension you can easily package it, and when you recompile/re-install
php, you just pecl install MyOwnExtension or such.
