Description:
------------
On some installations, the PEAR_INSTALL_DIR constant is set by PHP but might be empty. In this case, Barcode.php tries to include files from a wrong path, at line 64 of Barcode.php.

I think it is wise that Barcode.php should not depend on using this constant, as other PEAR packages do neither.

Reproduce code:
---------------
// this fails, in the case that PEAR_INSTALL_DIR is
// undefined or an empty string:
require_once "Image/Barcode.php";

Actual result:
--------------
Opendir() fails on the directory: "/Image/Barcode"

A possible fix is the following: replace line 64 of Barcode.php with:

$barcodepath = dirname(__FILE__) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . "Barcode";
