I'm trying to figure out how I can install both php4 and mod_php4 on a
production web server.

We have a custom web application written in PHP and is served up with
mod_php4.
We also have some daily batch processing for this application that is
cron-driven and needs to use some of the common PHP code that the web app
uses in order to accomplish its tasks.

Thus, I'd want to install lang/php4 and www/mod_php4 on our production web
server -- but the current ports won't allow it due to the CONFLICT
mechanism.

What are the dangers of overriding the CONFLICT mechanism in the ports
subsystem so that I can install both?

Thanks,
