I've packaged it up and put it online at:
   http://www.omnitech.net/debian
   this includes the build log as well as the dpkg-buildpackage outfiles.

What I did:

renamed *php4* to *php5*

sar on every file with php4 to php5 except:
   copyright still says it was based off of php4-pgsql
   changelog was prepended with the php5-mcrypt line

modified dependancy to php5-dev 5:5.0.5-3 because this is what I'm running. I haven't tried older php5-dev packages.

tested basic build
   make distclean
   ./configure
   make all

built package with
   dpkg-buildpackage -C./debian/changelog -sgpg [EMAIL PROTECTED] -d

installed package with
   dpkg --install ../php5-mcrypt_4.3.10-2_i386.deb

simple test of package using horde/test.php


Questionables of note:
A) I built it as root.
B) The po/*.po files made ref to people who did work on the php4-mcrypt package, and those references were changed to php5. This is probably not kosher.
C) I didn't run lintian as recommended in the newbie build docs.
D) I left the maintainer as Mr. Bayle
E) I'm using an old RSA/idea based key with GPG
