Same here.  Different configurations, different needs.  Especially now that
PHP is moving into a actual CLI version that really is designed for
non-web(http) script work.  We use PHP on some servers that don't have
Apache installed.  I don't like installing ports that aren't needed or used.

The biggest problem with building outside the ports is keeping track of what
needs to be removed if something changes from version to version.  The ports
have made things much easier in that respect.  Unfortunately, this change
eliminates using ports for PHP for me.
