WANT_PHP_WEB is just a synonym for WANT_PHP_CGI in automated build environments

If this is true, it means that in automated build environments (e.g. tinderbox) – where *only* the direct dependencies of a port are installed at build time – there isn’t any way to tell WANT_PHP_WEB to install the module.  This effectively makes WANT_PHP_WEB a synonym for WANT_PHP_CGI in these environments.

You missed the fact that you can install the php module as a separate
port/package together with the core php package. Not only, mod_php port
requires core php port, that is the one containing the cgi version. So
there isn't any problem with tinderbox/poudriere.
