The way this is supposed to work, you should be able to put:

     WITH_MYSQL_VER=	41
     APACHE_PORT=	www/apache13-modssl

into /etc/make.conf to make the ports do what you want.  Most ports 
depending on Apache or MySQL will respect those.

Unfortunately the www/mod_log_sql port is not configured to play ball. 
While it will obey the APACHE_PORT setting, unfortunately it is 
hardwired to use mysql323-client -- which could well be because it 
doesn't work with any other MySQL version.

Try www/mod_mylo instead.

	Cheers,
