Hello,

This is actually a ports problem and not a system problem.
PHP4 had been deprecated some time ago by the PHP development
team and they will no longer submit updates for the application
etc.

You are greatly encouraged to switch over to PHP5, on which most
php4 code should work out of the box.

Thanks,
remko
