Hi,

I'd like to install _all_ versions of PHP -- that is I need the apache module
and the php CLI binary, and I need the CGI interface as well.  I cannot figure
out any way to do this with ports. Am I stuck with building on my own?

As far as I can see lang/php4 only builds the CGI binary when both
WITHOUT_APACHE and WITHOUT_CLI are set. I do not see the point of this. It is
easy to install the CGI to another directory, let's say
/usr/local/www/cgi-bin. The PHP docs say that you can build both CLI & CGI
versions at the same time by doing

./configure --enable-cli=${PREFIX} --enable-cgi=${PREFIX}/www/cgi-bin

So if it's not possible using ports, why is this and can it be fixed?
If it is possible, please let me know how.
