Yes, but you cannot build PHP with fastcgi and Apache support at the
same time, so there should be several packages, runtime for every
webserver available (currently only lighttpd) plus one common
package (devel stuff).

Just include everything possible seems to be ok;)  There should be all
important modules which are really needed, e.g. database modules for
mysql and pgsql, sqlite and others, all graphic stuff possible (GD,
JPEG, PNG, ...), cryptographic stuff like openssl, mhash, ...,
compression, pear, XML/XSLT, pdflib, PSPELL?  Well you see, one cannot
say which extension is important and which isn't, just try to use
every available extension seems to be ok IMO.
