trying a yum update on mysql, postgres or php forces the others to install. is that really wanted ??

This is yum's behavior, because you have these packages installed on your system. Try it with an --exclude mysq*,postgres* and it'll work just fine. You can get around this by using an includepkg or exclude statement in the repository config file as documented in the wiki entry centosplus http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories/CentOSPlus

As you can see ... there is not a requirement for mysql or postgresql in php by itself.
Now ... IF you install php-mysql and php-pgsql, that does change:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [root@i386 ~]# yum --enablerepo=centosplus install php php-mysql php-pgsql

In that case, you would get a portion of mysql and postgresql.
AND ... if you had mysql and postgresql installed, yum would want those upgraded to the version in centosplus repo.
That is the way the Web Stack works ... all the components are designed to work together.
Trying to make the Web Stack "mix and match" (ie, I want php-5 and mysql-3 and postgresql-8 ... not mysql-5) would require many changes ... and I spent 6 months begging/pleading/forcing RH to release the RHWAS code. It is a vastly superior stack for EL4 and is what the Enterprise customers want, need, and are willing to by big bucks for. It is based the source code from:
http://www.redhat.com/solutions/rhappstack/
That is the CentOS Web Stack. Not sure why it is evil ... all the components work together and offer an upgrade path.

curl i386 7.12.1-8.rhel4 base 231 k
Why would php need curl ?

Because it has a curl based library built in to the core:
RedHat could have spun this off into a php-curl RPM package I guess but they chose not to with php4 and I don't think php5 in RHEL5 will either...

They have been known to do this if someone sends them a bugzilla reprort with a patch for the spec file.

Or, why the command-line client isn't in a separate package from libcurl....
