OK, I'll take you up on that. :-)

I've got a FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE box with 25 php55 packages installed.
There's nothing about php in /etc/make.conf, and according to
/usr/ports/UPDATING, the current default version of php is 5.6.

However, 'pkg update && pkg upgrade' doesn't touch the php packages.

I don't particularly _need_ php56* on this box, but I'd like to
understand what the expected behavior is.

Thanks!
