It's a limitation of our packages management. Our build process is a 
per port build, so default options applies. Since default apache 
version is 1.3.x, all ports which don't depend explicitly on apache2 
are build for apache 1.3 , PHP is one on them. To support package for 
php (4|5) for apache 2 we need to add more than 130 ports where 
WITH_APACHE2 is defined (we have to duplicate all php and their 
extensions ports). We don't plan to support this.
To install apache 2 + php you have to use ports tree and not packages.
You can also build your packages set.
