    Huh?

    Here's what pear looks like on Debian:

    #!/usr/bin/php4 -Cq
    <?php // -*- PHP -*-

    SuSE uses a shell wrapper which ends in

    exec $PHP -C -q $INCARG -d output_buffering=1 $INCDIR/pearcmd.php "$@"

    and pearcmd.php simply starts with

    <?php

    Fedora has a similar shell wrapper:

    exec $PHP -C -q $INCARG -d output_buffering=1 $INCDIR/pearcmd.php "$@"

    so we're certainly not the only ones who need to modify pear.

    Take a look at this:

    des@cat ~% uname -a
    Linux cat 2.6.8-24.14-default #1 Tue Mar 29 09:27:43 UTC 2005 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
    des@cat ~% cat foo.php
    #!/usr/bin/php -n -q -dsafe_mode=0 -doutput_buffering=1
    <?php print "hello, world!\n" ?>
    des@cat ~% php -n -q -dsafe_mode=0 -doutput_buffering=1 foo.php
    hello, world!
    des@cat ~% ./foo.php
    Usage: php [options] [-f] <file> [args...]
           php [options] -r <code> [args...]
           php [options] [-- args...]
      -a Run interactively
      -c <path>|<file> Look for php.ini file in this directory
      -n No php.ini file will be used
      -d foo[=bar] Define INI entry foo with value 'bar'
      -e Generate extended information for debugger/profiler
      -f <file> Parse <file>.
      -h This help
      -i PHP information
      -l Syntax check only (lint)
      -m Show compiled in modules
      -r <code> Run PHP <code> without using script tags <?..?>
      -s Display colour syntax highlighted source.
      -v Version number
      -w Display source with stripped comments and whitespace.
      -z <file> Load Zend extension <file>.

      args... Arguments passed to script. Use -- args when first argument
                       starts with - or script is read from stdin
