Well unlike with perl and python, most of the php extensions that are widely
used are included in PHP -- so they all have the same maintainer. There may
not be a policy, or at least not a published one; and even if there is,
probably not many people know about it. :)
As with all packages, /usr/lib is used for architecture-specific files (e.g.,
binary php extensions) and /usr/share is for architecture-independent files
(e.g., PHP class files). You might want to look at the directory structure
for some of the other PHP modules (e.g., php4-mysql, php4-pear) to see what
directories they use.
