is pear broken?

[Chris]

Hello,

I have problem with the new pear version from ports. Tried to upgrade it
using portupgrade but it fails. Then I tried to make deinstall it but it
said it doesn't exist and then I tried to make install clean but I get
that error:

root at server1# make install clean
===>  Installing for pear-1.5.3
===>   pear-1.5.3 depends on file: /usr/local/include/php/main/php.h -
