eaccelerator is an oddity. It only works properly with the version of
PHP it was compiled against. Unfortunately there isn't a good automatic
mechanism in ports to say "recompile this port, because something it
depends on was upgraded." It's like something that depends on a shlib
in that respect, that needs to be rebuilt when the shlib ABI version
changes.
While it might be possible to do hackish things, like include the PHP
pkg version string into the eaccelerator pkg version, on the whole the
correct solution seems to be to reinstall eaccelerator each time PHP
gets a significant upgrade. Ideally ports committers should bump the
eaccelerator PORTREVISION to make ports management tools do that
automatically, but if not, you're going to have to remember to do it by
hand.
Cheers,
Matthew
