Well, it clearly doesn't or else I would have had tons of problems while
installing it from ports too, don't you think? How would someone check
the ports directory to see if a package was installed? Find the work
directory? Find the distfile? What it does is setting WANT_PHP_WEB (so
calls the basic checks for a CGI of MOD version of PHP), and work
onwards from there.

How about you showing exactly what you did, how you did it and why you
did it, so people can actually start helping you?
