Matt: Please let me know if adding this snippet to the php5 portfile  
and installing php5 with the +mssql variant works for you, so that I  
can apply the patch to the portfile and commit it. Thanks.

variant mssql {
	depends_lib-append \
		port:freetds
	configure.args-append \
		--with-mssql=${prefix}
}
