That's not completely true. That's the same reason as it is for 16 bit
real-mode on Pentium4 processors :-)

I maintain devel/php-dbg, but I need a working php port to fix the
problem devel/php-dbg has with new php4 port.

I've recognized it. Looks to be great work.

A possible solution may be, creating a new slave port for mod_php4,
let's say www/php4_module and let it conflict with www/mod_php4 (as well
as lang/php4 and lang/php4-cli). Than each port which depends on
mod_php4 could be checked separately without requiring a huge commit for
all ports. Maybe it's a good point to start.
