In PHP when you do:
   include "filename.php";
Then PHP searches the directories in include_path for filename.php.
/usr/share/php will be there so PEAR (http://pear.php.net) packages can 
be found.
In practice for your problem it's probably not reallt anything to do 
with PEAR or include_path, just explaining :)
