Regarding the dl-check; below is a snippet I'm using to handle loadable
PHP extensions. This is probably the best solution that covers any
possible and specific setup (e.g dl() does not work in safe mode).



protected function isCurlAvailable() {
	$isAvailable = TRUE;
	if (!extension_loaded('curl')) {
		if (!((bool)ini_get('enable_dl')
			&& !(bool)ini_get('safe_mode')
			&& function_exists('dl')
			&& dl('curl.so'))) {
			$isAvailable = FALSE;
		}
	}
	return $isAvailable;
}
