Second part of the question: yes.

Protectbase does work ... however it is not what you are trying to accomplish.
The purpose of protect base is to allow you to do updates from a repository and prevent updating any protected packages but allow updating of non-protected packages.
php would show up as protected ... and would not update.
You need to edit the centosplus section of CentOSBase.repo and use:
includepkgs=php*
that will allow you to get only php from centosplus.
You should be able to see the packages that are upgraded here:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/centosplus/
(pick your arch)
and you can download the packages manually from [os] and [updates] and replace them with the command:
rpm -Uvh package1 package2 package3
(etc.)
