So it is my proposition:

INCLUDE_PATH=.:/etc/php:/usr/local/share/php/5.0:/usr/share/php5:/usr/share/php/5.0:/usr/share/php:/usr/local/share/php
 
EXTENSION_DIR=/usr/local/lib/php/5.0/20041030:/usr/lib/php5/20041030:/usr/lib/php/5.0/20041030:/usr/local/lib/php

Budled libraries would install into /usr/share/php/5.0, PHP5-only libraries 
would install into /usr/share/php5, PHP-any libraries would install 
into /usr/share/php.

The same for binary extensions: bundled extensions into /usr/lib/php/5.0, 
external modules into /usr/lib/php5. The locally installed packages by `pear 
install' command could go into /usr/local/lib/php.

Of course the PHP packages have to set default "include_path" and 
"extension_dir". In addition, it have to be applied additional patch for 
multipath "extension_dir" setting.
