sudo port install php54-pear

I have not used it myself but I assume it works.

Digging through the code (I know just enough to know that I'm in over my head) I found the problem is here in common.h <https://bitbucket.org/osmanov/pecl-event/src/74adb2980f6da7c70a00b801aa8e4865ac2f3acc/src/common.h#cl-37>:

First I should create a port for this module so you don't have to install it outside of MacPorts.

Then, if it has the same problems, we can investigate why.

Could you tell me what PHP code you ran and what error you got?
