For servers without pecl_http package installed.

Usage:
Place this file on a suitable directory of your PHP system.
Inside a common bootstrap file within your system insert the following piece of code:
if (!function_exists('http_build_str') || !function_exists('http_build_url')) {
require dirname(__FILE__).'/write/your/relative/path/here/http_build_url.php';
}After that, the functions http_build_url() and http_build_str() would be callable.
A quick test:
echo http_build_url();For testing this fallback implementation, place the file http_build_url_test.php on the web-server too, and open it with a browser. Don't forget to remove it when it is no longer needed.

An important note: Don't use host autodetection (or more generally base url autodetection)
implemented by this function, it relies first on $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].
