Ok. But important is not to modify, create or remove this files manually! The 
packages should bring the .register files in archive, not postinst/postrm 
scripts. Then they could be verified by `debsums' later.

The default php_dir should be /usr/local/php by default. If not, the user can 
destroy the /usr/share/php system directories.
