Sorry for the previous misfire.

I built and installed the latest PHP 5.1 CVS source, then at the end it says:

So I did:

cd pear/
wget http://pear.php.net/install-pear.phar
chmod 755 install-pear.phar
cd ..
make install-su

Then I get errors:

make install-su

Any ideas?

install-pear.phar is not an executable, it should be run by PHP. These
lines are from Makefile.frag - can anyone see anything obviously wrong
with it?

install-pear-installer: $(top_builddir)/sapi/cli/php
@$(top_builddir)/sapi/cli/php $(PEAR_INSTALL_FLAGS)
$(srcdir)/install-pear.phar -d "$(peardir)" -b "$(bindir)"

$(top_builddir)/sapi/cli/php should be the php binary, no?
