It shows just what is included in php-pear, as our addon rpm's don't
register themselves with pear.  But I don't believe they need to.  For
example, if I check horde's test.php page, it says I do have mail_mime
installed, but that's not shown in 'pear list'.  If I 'rpm -e
pear-mail_mime', restart apache and check again with Horde's test.php, it
says I don't have Mail_Mime installed.  

I'd like to see proof as well that the ones that are duplicates are actually
using the newer version in pear-addons, but I have little doubt the newer
version is being used, as the rpms were made to fix (and did fix) bugs we
encountered.  I looked for some php documentation to say the first path in
the "include_path" setting overrides the second but didn't find any.  But if
you google for 'pear "include_path to override"', you'll see some remarks
that putting the additional path first works though.
