php53-pear incorrectly depends upon php5?

I just committed an update to all the pear-* packages and they should now not dependent on any php.

The tree ports that are dependent on MacPorts php ports are php5-pear, php53-pear and php54-pear. These ports only install some configuration files that automatically add the prefix/lib/php/pear path to php's include path. You could use all the pear-* ports without the php5-pear, php53-pear and php54-pear ports by adding the path to the pear libs in by other means. These ports are for convenience.

The pear ports could easily be used with Apples php.

The pear-install-phar port relies on Apples /usr/bin/php to install the pear packages. I'm hoping this works well but I have not been able to test this on any system other then Snow Leopard.

Feedback is welcome.
