Unfortunately, the Makefile for the squirrelmail port says:

    RUN_DEPENDS+=   ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache/libphp4.so:${PORTSDIR}/www/mod_php4

which means that if ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache/libphp4.so cannot be
found at compile/install time, the squirrelmail port will try and
install mod_php4 to fulfil the dependency.  Since you've already
installed mod_php4 with the -DWITH_APACHE2 flag, causing the loadable
module to be installed as ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache2/libphp4.so, the
system will try and reinstall mod_php4, which you've already
discovered doesn't work.

One solution is to patch the squirrelmail port Makefile:

--- Makefile.orig       Fri Sep 20 17:38:46 2002
+++ Makefile    Fri Oct 25 16:49:45 2002

-RUN_DEPENDS+=  ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache/libphp4.so:${PORTSDIR}/www/mod_php4
+.if defined(WITH_APACHE2)
+RUN_DEPENDS+=  ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache2/libphp4.so:${PORTSDIR}/www/mod_php4
+.else
+RUN_DEPENDS+=  ${LOCALBASE}/libexec/apache/libphp4.so:${PORTSDIR}/www/mod_php4
+.endif
 
 USE_BZIP2=     yes
 NO_BUILD=      yes


Then make -DWITH_APACHE2

The same problem will affect all ports that install PHP code. See for
instance:

o [2002/08/12] ports/41577  ports    port security/acid won't see apache2+mod_php4
o [2002/09/21] ports/43225  nbm      phpPgAdmin port doesn't work with Apache2 by 
default
o [2002/09/21] ports/43227  ports    squirrelmail port doesn't support Apache2
o [2002/10/05] ports/43706  nbm      Make databases/phpmyadmin operate with apache2

        Cheers,

        Matthew
