Why not just naming them *.so on all platforms and removing the "php_" prefix
on Windows?
Apache modules on Windows also have the .so suffix.

AFAIK, the 'php_' prefix is required on WIndows because, without it,
some extension file names would conflict with system DLLs. The only way
to unify names would be to add the php_ prefix everywhere. This is the
mechanism used by Apache, with the 'mod_' prefix. Unfortunately, PHP
started on Unix, where the prefix was not needed, and didn't want to
change the Unix behavior when Windows support was added.
About the '.so' suffix, some systems don't use this as shared lib
suffix. HP-UX, for instance, uses '.sl', and others exist, like
'.dynlib'. On some systems, you cannot load a dynamic library if its
suffix is not the right one. So , '.so' is not usable everywhere.
