php-pear dependencies install httpd

[BJ Dierkes]

php-pear most likely depends on php-devel as a courtesy, based on the fact that PECL requires php-devel in order to build some/most/all (?) of its modules.  Meaning, when someone says:

# pecl install foo


Foo requires php-devel to build properly, and install the module.  Without php-devel as a dependency of php-pear, users would be confronted to sometimes obscure pecl install failures.
