That's why wrote "... I hope, Alex can fix the problems so that my pr
can closed without getting committed". I've seen your port and it worked
on my test system. But my php-environment is a little bit more
complicated, so I didn't run all build I had to test before kris took
the change back.

It's not enough. Because of php-dbg supports client/server debugging, I
need the module and apache support. That's why I can start with
modifying when I have the new port. You may sent a diff to me and I
apply it on a test system and review the patch you made to the php debugger.

The devel/php-dbg port is like it is, because of there's only one php4
in ports: www/mod_php4. Before 4.3.0 (I started with the port at 4.2) I
wrote a Makefile similar to your bsd.php.mk (smaller), but with same
detection for shell, module (apache13, apache2), cgi. But than 4.3.0
came out and a lot of the work was deprecated.

So it might be best if I rewrote the port the way I like it or you send
me your patches and I review it and make the changes I want.

If you take a look into the patch in devel/php-dbg, what do you think
about the way to patch it in php installation with lang/php4?

I don't hope so. The new port gives me some things back I missed and
I'll check the options I have. But I think you're right.

Just a thought ...
