Description Paul Hoffman 2008-01-15 16:40:04 UTC 
When one builds php5, it is completely unclear where to find extensions, given
that they mostly do not live in lang/.

Fix: 

Proposed additional paragraph for lang/php5/pkg-descr:

Extensions to php5 are found in other parts of the ports hierarchy, always
with the directory name "php5'*". For example, the bz2 extension is found in
archivers/php5-bz2. Also see lang/php5-extensions for a common set of
extensions.
How-To-Repeat: Be a php5 newbie.
