You might be able to avoid the issue you're having, by using:
DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=php=5.5
in your make.conf(5) (/etc/make.conf) file.
Check to see if you already have a DEFAULT_VERSIONS line there.
If not simply add
DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=php=5.5
you your make.conf file. If the line already exists, it is
a space separated list. So simply append it to the list thusly
DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=mysql=5.5 php=5.5
assuming that the entry mysql=5.5 was already listed.
