Trouble installing PECL module

[Ryan Schmidt]

I've worked around it for now:

https://trac.macports.org/changeset/110361

The bugs as I see it are 

1) the documentation does not mention that the php sockets extension should be installed
2) the build system does not recognize when the php sockets extension has been installed separately and not compiled into the php executable

Take a look at the code <https://bitbucket.org/osmanov/pecl-event/src/74adb2980f6da7c70a00b801aa8e4865ac2f3acc/src/util.c?at=master#cl-64> and you can see it's because PHP_EVENT_SOCKETS_SUPPORT is not defined. This goes back to my original question; I think it's maybe because the extension isn't getting compiled in a full PHP development environment:
