I do not like the way patches are handled in this case.  I have
reworked the spec file here:
http://tkmame.retrogames.com/fedora-extras/php-pear-PEAR-Command-Packaging.spec

Where the patches are done normally.  Perhaps we should use this type
of install as a standard?  That is, untarring the tarball, making any
necessary patches, then installing with the .xml file?

An update SRPM with fixed patches is here:
