If 5.5 is not yet EOL, and there are significant things that work with 5.5 and not with 5.6 (and not a lot that fails with 5.5 and needs 5.6), then it seems too soon to switch. For packages that have optional php bits, especially those that have optional bits for various languages, using a phpXY- prefix seems too much. But for packages which are fundementally php (can't work without it), then it seems those should have prefixes, which will get us multiple binary packages.
