why not just configure CI to use the php extension?

Sounds like you got it working? You owe me nothing except gratitude. That you would think to offer me a money reward is thanks enough. Besides, I wanted to know for myself if it could be done.

I addressed that a few posts up, but only briefly :-)

My brief look at CI's ability to use or not use suffixs seemed it was all or nothing. I prefer suffix suppression for several reasons, and I don't want to change the entire system for one out of a dozen integration points.
