I don't know why postgresql83 is failing to build for you, but I also  
don't know why MacPorts is trying to build postgresql83 for you when  
you asked it to build php5. I'll have to look at the dependency  
graph. In the mean time, try Joshua's suggestion. If postgresql83  
fails again, clean it again, then show us the full debug output from  
"sudo port -d install postgresql83".
