[php-maint] bringing existing seperately packaged on-tree modules into main source package?

[sean finney]

hey folks,

after implementing the mighty configuration update for the php packages,
it's become apparent to me that we also need to do this for each of the
seperately packaged modules split off from the source package.

this unfortunately is a bit of work, and not very rewarding at that.

additionally, each of these modules are currently uninstallable from
unstable, because of a phpapi change in 5.2.0, so they need to be
rebuilt and uploaded.

so, i'm wondering... wouldn't it just make life a bit easier to enable
the modules in php4/php5, generate the packages from the main source
package (and taking whatever steps are necessary to make the seperate
source packages to disappear) and get on with life?

iirc, for the existing packages (all but -tidy), it shouldn't get php
stuck in NEW since they're already in the archive, right?
