dev-php is on it's way out and has not been updated in some time. You're
likely vulnerable at this moment.
So the question is what do I put in /etc/portage/? file to get
the system to accept the older dev-php files and not try to install
'dev-lang/php' ?
You don't. You remove dev-php and install dev-lang/php when you have
some time to deal with change. I had no issues moving from dev-php to
dev-lang/php with 4.4.x and the whole thing took about 30 minutes.
Didn't even have downtime as Apache had the old module cached until I
stopped and started to pick up the new build.
However PHP USE flags have gotten a bit more complex. You'll want apache
(or apache2), cli for the php commandline binary, and session at minimum
plus anything else you might need.
