I don't think that's true. You're right to say that other ports use this
directory; take the mod_php4 port as an example. The Makefile is:
less /usr/ports/www/mod_php4/Makefile
# New ports collection makefile for: mod_php4
# Date created: Sun May 28 11:31:54 CEST 2000
# Whom: Dirk Froemberg <dirk@FreeBSD.org>
#
# $FreeBSD: ports/www/mod_php4/Makefile,v 1.191 2003/06/06 17:43:59 nork

# Instructions on how to enable preferred extensions can be found in the

PORTEPOCH= 1
CATEGORIES= www
MAINTAINER= sysadmin@alexdupre.com
PKGMESSAGE= ${.CURDIR}/pkg-message
MASTERDIR= ${.CURDIR}/../../lang/php4
WITHOUT_CLI= yes
.include "${MASTERDIR}/Makefile"
So it's a sort of wrapper for lang/php4 with the configure argument
WITHOUT_CLI = yes but you should still be able to use the lang/php4 port
if you wish. I always do.
The problem for the OP is a dependency, though. No idea why it wasn't
pulled in automatically but the fix would be to install graphics/jpeg
and try again.
PWR.
