The adding of modules happens VERY rarely. So your "disables cvs upd -d" is not very good argument against this. And there is no alternative way anyway.. If you know such, PLEASE do tell us. :)
The symlinks are the only transparent way.
Remember the big fight with James about this issue? He wanted to do the same thing as Wez is proposing.
Well, symlinks turned out to be even bigger headache. It makes having different versions of extensions in PECL nearly impossible.
The most obvious example is sqlite which supports php4 but is not part of it, while its bundled and enabled by default in php5.
Now with php5-bundle cvs module that specifies all the pecl modules included in the distribution this is easy to solve.
