Firstly, please don't build PHP yourself. That rarely ends well.
Secondly, you didn't really answer my question. Your local mirror of what?

Where did you get PHP from? A "reliable" source?
Jira == industry standard 
It could even be a gradual process. Each subsystem would have to start looking in two places for plugins, anyway. So start with an option to place (for example) themes in either 'themes/' or 'plugins/themes' and so on. In a few versions time, when all the dust has settled, move to 'plugins/' only.
I'm not saying it's simple

Moodle in English -> General help -> How can I use more than one letter scale with conversion from points / percentage -> Re: How can I use more than one letter scale with conversion from points / percentage
I assume that you are talking about "Grade letters". You can't, it's one map per course.
The whole treatment of scales and their relationship to values, for both aggregation and display, is (shall we say) sub-optimal in Moodle.
This was so critical for us that we have spent the last year or so writing our own custom version of the Gradebook that handles these scenarious. And, yes, it handles multiple value <=> scale conversions in the same course. Unfortunately, it will always be way too specific to be released as a general plugin.
