I guess that mod_php5 depends on Apache and maintainer don't want this 
big dependency. The second is - if it will depends on Apache of some 
version (eg. 1.3) it will be broken with another version (2.0 and 2.2).
It apply for binary packages. If somebody is compiling ports himself, 
then can check option "with apache" or add WITH_APACHE in to /etc/make.conf
