>Description:
I found this log in httpd_error log:
PHP Warning:  Module 'zlib' already loaded in Unknown on line 0

After I deinstalled php5-zlib-5.3.3_1 ( /usr/ports/archivers/php5-zlib ),
the log message doesn't appear.

I found that PHP5 Zlib has been set as default installation because of following lines in /usr/ports/lang/php5/Makefile :

CONFIGURE_ARGS= \
                ....
                --with-zlib-dir=/usr \
                ....

I think we don't need /usr/ports/archivers/php5-zlib , and we maight have to fix lots ports which have set /usr/ports/archivers/php5-zlib as dependency.
