The PKGBUILD looks strange, but I guess you already noticed that. The nginx-extra package is identical to the nginx package except its dependencies. Just use optdepends here if needed. But more important please don't add random third party patches/modules and keep the package vanilla. There are good reasons we have the "don't patch" policy. They can break on nginx updates, introduce new issues etc.; esp. since they are built-in. There might be very good reasons why these modules are not included in the upstream distribution. So in short: Don't split nor patch and keep the package as vanilla as possible. People can easily build their own if they need special "modules" or patches.
