Hmmm... As far as I can tell, the --with-imagick option doesn't exist
in PHP4 or later. Which is probably why there isn't a 'WITH_IMAGICK'
option in the port Makefile.
In fact, see this, from the principal author of PHP himself:
http://www.phpbuilder.com/lists/php-general/2000062/0343.php
"ImageMagick support is broken and deprecated"
You can achieve pretty much all of the graphical manipulations you
need by a combination of PHP's built in support for the GD libraries,
or by using the exec() capability of PHP to call external programs.
The netpbm library (ports: graphics/netpbm) and ImageMagick have some
suitable command line programs that you can work with.
Cheers,
Matthew
