I don't believe it exists.  There is a perl example which I put in the
Mapserver Wiki:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?PerlMapScriptExamples35ex17
which should be easily adapted to PHP. It's based on the 3.6 C code in
maptemplate.c::setExtent() case FROMREFPT but requires that your map and
reference map have the same aspect ratio.
