Description:
------------
I have some problems with the new phar-based go-pear on a freshly installed WAMP with PHP 5.1.1.

1. The installer complains that pear.bat is not in the path, but it is (path was set before command shell was opened, so no problem with un-updated environment variables). The "set" commands correctly lists "c:\Programme\e-novative\WAMP\php" as part of the PATH

2. The installer gives a warning (see output below) and creates a pear.bat_old though no other pear.bat was present before the PEAR installation. The generated pear.bat and pear.bat_old are exactly the same files

3. PEAR_env.reg contains a path
"PHP_PEAR_PHP_BIN"="C:\\Programme\\e-novative\\WAMP\\php\\.\\php.exe"
Not a real bug, but unneccessary, that dot?

4. The --alldeps switch is not recognized:
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Steve>pear upgrade-all --alldeps
Console_Getopt: unrecognized option --alldeps

5. More of a enhancement request: on first install, shouldn't the PEAR installer do the channel upgrade automatically?

6. pecl creates PHP warnings: C:\Programme\e-novative\WAMP\php>pecl list-all

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in PEAR\REST\11.php on line 145

(repeated several times, but the command works)

Actual result:

** WARNING! Backed up old pear to c:\Programme\e-novative\WAMP\php\pear.bat_old

The 'pear' command is now at your service at c:\programme\e-novative\wamp\php\pear.bat

** The 'pear' command is not currently in your PATH, so you need to
** use 'c:\programme\e-novative\wamp\php\pear.bat' until you have added
** 'C:\Programme\e-novative\WAMP\php' to your PATH environment variable.

Run it without parameters to see the available actions, try 'pear list'
to see what packages are installed, or 'pear help' for help.

Thanks for using go-pear!
