For more portability - systems suppory (Linuc, mac, bsd etc) and still no
Windows instead of the #!/bin/bash use the shebang #!/bin/sh
Also, this tool mostly is still tied to current Linux repositories and not
to a php built from sources... So that's another thing making it specific
to certain installation type.
I'd still say that the tool needed for PHP is renewed and completwly
rewritten pecl. Basically copy paste of current functionality in its
essense and adding more swag and user features. Something like that...
