Aha, I got it now. Maybe I am slow today. :P
Yes: In newer PHPversions PEAR support is enabled by default, but you'll
have to install the packages yourself. (Maybe a few come out-of-the-box,
not sure).
Just use the latest versions of PEAR libs, because they are upgraded
sometimes to fix securityholes/bugs/better compatibility/etc.
No reason to use stale packages.
If you are afraid you are using some testing/beta software, just make sure
your only use the stable releases.
