We need to make pecl/sqlite work with 5.4, as currently it does not. I forget the details (and the related patch) but did work on one with Johannes many months ago. The last step (which failed) was to get pdo_sqlite2 to work with the shared PECL variant, IIRC. Then, make a release. Moving something to PECL should require that the PECL extension work with the distribution that it was [re]moved from. Otherwise, it was not moved. Johannes probably assumed I adjusted/committed the patch, and made a pecl/sqlite release, but he forgot that I forgot to do this, and I have since lost said patch and progress and most memories.
