Hi Dmitry,

I strongly encourage you to take a few more seconds actually looking at 
the message you quoted (and perhaps the patch included) before jumping 
to hasty conclusions.  The patch was developed on ubuntu linux which 
indeed uses ":" as the path separator and yet strangely enough, the test 
scripts (which you kindly quoted in your reply) actually work with my 
patch!  In other words, this include_path:

".:/usr/local/lib/php:phar://whatever.phar/internal/path"

works just fine on unix, and this one:

".;C:\php5;phar://whatever.phar/internal/path"

works just fine on windows.
