PHP ports/packages framework is seriously flawed

Hi guys,
Maybe I am missing something obvious, but as long as I can see, the
whole PHP framework is currently severely flawed. Specifically I am
talking about www/mod_php4 port/package. Current system doesn't allow
any PHP extensions to be installed for it, at the same time when
building mod_php4 it explicitly disables all possible extensions, so
that resulting module is nearly useless since it lacks even essential
functions and it's impossible to install them later on.
Perhaps FreeBSD PHP maintainers should take a closer look on how this
problem is addressed in major linux distros.
Regards,
Maxim
