Once http
://svn.xapian.org/trunk/xapian-bindings/php/ is
generated, it
creates php_xapian.h and xapian_wrap.cc, which are the PHP
Xapian
extension. I think it could never be distributed with PHP
itself
because it is governed under the GNU license, which they
aren't overly
fond of given it's viral nature.
