If this kind of a "fork" makes it a "product" as the license has
restrictions only about "products" called PHP or which are being
endorsed/promoted as such only. One can certainly argue that a source
"fork" on such a site makes no new independent product.
Besides that I assume that The PHP Group will handle this, if needed,
after such a move.
