I have now been able to verify that trying to build php5 with both the  
+apache2 and +fastcgi variants does not work when apache2 is compiled  
with the +workermpm variant.

I believe my solution will be to prevent installation of php5 when  
apache2 is not compiled with its default +preforkmpm variant.
