Ports was updated immediately prior to this. The only thing that depends on 
php5 is php5-extensions. I completely removed all PHP and rebuilt manually, 
same problem. Removed all and did again without using the Suhosin patch and 
now all is fine. Except for running without the hardening benefits of 
Suhosin.

I run both lighttpd and Apache on this box with PHP as FastCGI and it took 
them both down. 

Will look into it a little more later. The error I got was periodically a 
PHP bug on and off for years. I think there is something wrong with the 
patch I got. I use cvsup11 because it closest to me (in the Verizon 
datacenter in Ashland, Va.) but I have had that server go stale before. 
Might try csupping ports again from something a little higher up in the 
hierarchy.
