Are you referring to 'php5-extensions-1.1' in the ports tree? Assuming
you have installed php5 via ports, why couldn't you just run:
portupgrade -NRryv php5-extensions
You will probably want to run 'make config' in that directory before
running portupgrade.
You could also use portmanager:
portmanager lang/php5-extensions -p -y -l
