    The quickest and easiest way, though it doesn't answer your other
questions, is to create the directory and make it writable, of course.

    If I'm correct, you need to add an override flag like so:

File: php-x.x.x/pear/Makefile.frag
PEAR_INSTALLDIR=/path/where/pear/should/install

    Not really sure, though, so as usual, I'll defer to someone with a
better answer, but give you at least something to try in the meantime.

    Now quit jumping lists.  I just saw you on the IETF list and 30
seconds later over here!  ;-P
