The php4: both lines should go away, basically the second is reverse of
first, so the whole thing is no-op.

The industrial theme: the port was removed, to be recreated because it
turned out it's still useful. The older line should have been removed
when the port was reintroduced.

They are considered error but you should write your code so it can cope
with them when they happen.
