Gentoo users: emerge does not compile dev-lang/php with --enable-xmlreader by default. To enable this option, add the flag xmlreader to your USE variable and recompile php.

When you type:
pecl install XMLReader
and installation fails with this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function preg_match() in /usr/share/pear/PEAR/Frontend/CLI.php on line 57
You can temporarily fix it by removing the -n flag from the pecl script.
By removing the -n flag it will use your php.ini.
