I've managed to create a working module using the 'web application
development with php 4.0' book, lurking on this list, searching on the net
and nosing through the code. The module is able to use functions from the
compiled-in mysql-module and all seems ok, so I think the basic ingredients
to build a db-abstraction module are available...

You could try www.zend.com/apidoc, which contains a part of the book I
mentioned and gives a nice intro/howto to developing php-extensions. It's
helped me, I know :-)
Cheerio, Marc.
