I tend to agree with Jens here. The plist is not so huge once you
purge all the junk: ~ half of the contents of the package.xml is
compiled Smarty templates, helper scripts with authors' $HOME paths
hardcoded etc., however...
I tried to create a phpDocumentor port myself, but retracted it as
it wasn't worth the trouble. The code is a pile of nonsense that
barely manages to work, and that only in limited set of
circumstances.
