Description:
------------
pslib 0.4.1 is installed on my system, but for some reason, 
the pecl-ps configure script fails to detect it. I examined 
it manually, but I am not particularly fluent in bash 
scripts so I was not able to understand why it was failing. 
I was able to isolate the if statement that was causing this 
to fail by evaluating to false, so I wrote a hack that 
forced it to evaluate to true, which enables the package to 
be built and installed without issues.

The issue is present in both pecl-ps 1.3.5 and pecl-ps 
1.3.6. The patch that applies that hack works around the 
issue on both versions.

I filed a bug report regarding this at the Gentoo Linux Bug 
Tracker, but so far the package maintainer has not responded 
to it, assuming there is one. I thought I would take the 
initiative by asking the upstream developers why this is 
happening so that a proper fix can be made to resolve this.

Here is a link to the bug at Gentoo's bug tracker:
