/usr/ports/graphics/php5-gd/

I hope that helps but, from my recent experience of installing php ports 
on long-running systems after a cvsup, I doubt it will.

I'm now down to manually copying in pear and the source for any php apps 
(such as horde or phpMyAdmin)  I want to install on any system that had 
php installed prior to the change in the port structure.
