oh,
i just spent and extra second and discovered:
(from documentation :)

This extension has no configuration directives defined in php.ini.

if dbase does not appear to be installed on the system when you look at
phpifno output i would draft an email to them expressing that it
doesnt appear to be compiled in and ask them if they can add it.
