Actually, the naming convention was decided after speaking with Steve
Langasek and Adam Conrad (among other people) in #debian-devel for some
time. It was decided php{3,4,5}-<foo> would be for compiled php
extensions and php-<foo> would be for PEAR modules that were not part of
the main upstream PEAR package. I have logs available if you wish to see
them :)
