Wow, I found them fairly intuitive:
php4-ftp adds the ftp extension
php4-pgsql adds the pgsql extension
php4-mysqli adds teh mysqli_* functions
php4-session adds session support ...
the port itself is self-describing, or so *I* thought ... what do you find
confusing about the format? Does your mind somehow truncate once you hit
the - and dooesn't register teh -pgsql part of it? so you need a long
pkg-descr that states:
Thie port add the pgsql extension to php4
?
