Not AFAIK. You probably need apache+mod_ssl or
apache-ssl (? - the English one ... Greg Laurie, IIRC)...

I've basically given up on building anything that's not
just about the latest source. Probably a good idea
from a security standpoint.
The issues focus around compatibility in code. If
you're running 4.4-release, you've got a codebase
that's almost two years old. If you've updated /usr/ports,
you have a much newer version of PHP. IIRC,
bison is part of /usr/src/gnu, so it's probably outdated
as well, unless you've installed a newer version yourself.
Sorry I'm of little help. My solution (I rebuilt mod_php4
yesterday) is to run -STABLE, and cvsup /usr/ports
before compiling anything ...
