--- Comment #5 from Mathieu Arnold <mat at FreeBSD.org> ---
To be clear, like Guido says, I am working on FLAVORS for php, something that
makes it so that for example, a PHP extension, a PEAR library, or a PHP
application can have multiple packages, each built with a different version of
PHP.

For example, right now all those depend on the default PHP version:

$ make -C devel/pecl-event pretty-flavors-package-names
no flavor: pecl-event-2.3.0
$ make -C devel/pear-Horde_Cache pretty-flavors-package-names
no flavor: pear-Horde_Cache-2.5.5

With flavors, a separate package is built:

$ make -C devel/pecl-event pretty-flavors-package-names
php56: php56-pecl-event-2.3.0
php70: php70-pecl-event-2.3.0
php71: php71-pecl-event-2.3.0
php72: php72-pecl-event-2.3.0
$ make -C devel/pear-Horde_Cache pretty-flavors-package-names
php56: php56-pear-horde-Horde_Cache-2.5.5
php70: php70-pear-horde-Horde_Cache-2.5.5
php71: php71-pear-horde-Horde_Cache-2.5.5
php72: php72-pear-horde-Horde_Cache-2.5.5

It definitively does not mean those can be installed at the same time.
It means that whatever the PHP version you need, there is a package available.
