One way would be to chenge into the ports directory and do
a "make deinstall" for PHP and the extensions.

Another way would be to run "pkg_delete /var/db/pkg/<name>" on
PHP and its extensions.

Both ways should inform you about files that the deletion process
would not delete, so you can delete them manually afterwards.

Then there should be no problem doing a clean reinstall.
