 > It's interesting you get anything at all from se.php.net, that name
 doesn't even resolve here...but I'm guessing that mirror needs to be
 removed.

 Perhaps your DNS is one of those that resolves unknown hostnames to a
 search results page. This prevents MacPorts from responding correctly when
 a server it wants to try is down. So I recommend you turn this feature off
 in your DNS if possible, or use a different DNS, like
 [http://www.opendns.com/ OpenDNS], which, though by default it has such a
 search results page, can be configured not to.

 > doesn't resolve for me either, pretty scary... anyway, r55531

 r55531 only removed this mirror from the php5 port. I removed it from the
 php4 portfile and the php5extension portgroup in r55541. The php5-devel
 portfile was not affected.

 It has been suggested to me by email that I should create a php mirror
 group so that the list of sites is not duplicated in three places. I agree
 I should do this.
