More or less.  What I was really trying to say is that if you already
know that libphp5.so is now found in  port php53-apache2handler, then
it's obvious that that is the place to look for it.  Furthermore,
Brandon Allberry (who apparently knows this stuff better than most)
pointed out (and I will read between the lines a bit here) that if one
has intimate knowledge of portfiles, then one can divine what has
really happened.  IMO, it is usually better to pitch those things so
that mere mortals can understand.
