Depends on which modules of the nginx-full package you use. I never
liked that idea of throwing everything (which isn't really everyhting)
and the kitchen sink and call it nginx-full. I decided to have my own
builds which bundle the core nginx modules and also the
upload-progress and upstream-fair.

You're free to get the source package and add the passenger module to
the modules directory while adding the module with
--add-module=$(CURDIR)/modules/passenger-module-folder to the rules
file and issue fakeroot debian/rules binary if you don't want to
create a full featured debian package, the binary package suffices.
