I confess I'm not sure exactly what it is you are trying to do.

For certain urls, grab parts of the url and send them as-is within
QUERY_STRING to a php-processor? (In which case: doing the grabbing in
the location definition is probably easiest.)

Or grab parts of the url, and set other values in QUERY_STRING based
on the url parts? (In which case, matching on $uri at server level and
using the map-ped value within the location block is probably easiest.)

Or maybe something else?

The map documentation is at http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpMapModule#map
and there's an example of if/set/map in the thread at
http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,194480

And there are examples of php-without-rewrite around as well -- in the
location block, set "fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME" explicitly, as well
as fastcgi_pass.

Good luck,
