Does anyone have working instructions on getting informix database support up and running in PHP?

I have now gone the route of pear/pecl modules which didn't work as there are some issues with php 5.3.1. I have obtained the Client SDK for informix and built the pdo module, which wound up being installed but then pdo stuff still complained about not finding some informix driver.

I done it on manual build and using pear/pecl and still no luck.

In this environment I'm in we have plenty MS SQLServer and mysql databases and one informix database in each centre (3 centres with another coming online). Getting the informix up and running in php is about to define whether we go with linux or Windows. Windows just for the odbc connections to informix which I think is the thing which is the problem in the first place.

If anyone has been able to get informix and php up and running, please let me know how you did it.
