that's about it - if anything links to php (i doubt it) you may have to rebuild
it. If you have webapps that work in either, you shouldn't really need to
reinstall them (unless they install different files depending on what version
of PHP you are running) - just do force in the php4 install and then run pkgdb
-F to fix all the pkgs dependencies.
