France does not extradite its own citizens. Polanski's case is significantly different as he's a French citizen living in France.
The US does extradite it's own citizens on occasion, and a lot of other countries are prepared to extradite non-nationalists especially to places like the UK as they don't have the death penalty. It would depend on the treaties and the actual evidence against him (still need probable cause for example if he is extradited from the US), but fighting extradition might be harder than just fighting the cases.
