For jail there's DESTDIR. PREFIX is exactly for keeping conflicting
apps along with each other. And I don't actually understand why you
need to scatter php5 files in all subdirs, while you could have
them in one directory with canonical hierarchy.
You'll have to modify $PATH and posibly other stuff in both cases,
so there's no difference in usability.

As I've said, providing --*lib args to configure should be enough to
install files to nondefault locations, but there's chance that there are
some assumptions regarding directory hierarchy inside php you'll need to
change as well. That's usually done with ${REINPLACE_CMD} (which is sed)
or patches.

That would be impossible, as no software is intended for such
nonstandart install, and build systems other than configure don't even
provide ways to specify bin/etc/lib dirs.
