mime-info no longer available but documentation doesn't say that

Description: ------------ The documentation for the mime-magic extension http://www.php.net/manual/en/mime-magic.installation.php says I can "compile PHP with the configure switch --with-mime-magic to get support for mime-type functions" but php 5.3.0alpha3 and 5.3.0beta1 say this is an unknown configure option: Notice: Following unknown configure options were used: --with-mime-magic Check './configure --help' for available options And it's not listed in ./configure --help. php 5.3.0alpha1 still accepted the option. I did not test 5.3.0alpha2. I see in the NEWS file that the fileinfo extension was brought into php as of 5.3.0alpha1 and is intended as a replacement for mime-magic. Hoping I've got this all right, and if it's intended that mime-magic disappear with 5.3.0, then this ticket is a request to update the mime-magic documentation to indicate this and that fileinfo is its replacement.
