I think it's not a problem of smarty if the provider uses crippled (ok, ok,
"very secure") setups. PEAR is a default PHP addition as well as the mysql,
xml, or something else are default extension with the only exception that
it's written in PHP itself. And that's not drawback, imho. It's good code
and one should use it. As I said it is 'default' and if not installed by
default its no problem to copy the PEAR.php to the include path.

Smarty should keep using Pear, my optinion.
