When you install the forum you are asked for web path and data path and it is recommended that the data path now be browseable (outside of browseable dirs). If you want to keep the forum all in one dir that is fine too, as every non-direct access dir has .htaccess file with directive to deny access to all.

Even if the files are visible they do not contain any sensetive information like passwords etc...
Making them .php would be prolematic since some .inc have code that is executed in the main scope and if they were called .php, it would be executed.
