Hi there,

I am tryinh to install php from the ports collection but I need to 
specify quite a large set of compile flags. ie: --with-libxml --with-bz2 
etc.

I have looked in the Handbook, I have gooogled, I even tried using the 
-d option with make but still no luck.

I can always download the php tarball and do it the traditional way but 
before I do that I just want to know if it is possible to do it using 
the ports collection.

Thanks,
Gavin.
