You don't have to worry. Rails runs as the 404 handler, so only handles files that do not exist in the normal web server html area. So, if the php file exists, it should take precedence over rails. Think of how the index.html file has to be removed from a new rails app to get it started.
I'd set a catchall route so that Rails would notice missing files in those applications. Brendon.
