That's normal and harmless. It happens because you've got
WANT_APACHE2=3Dyes set in /etc/make.conf (or equivalent), and because
you've got GTK2 and imlib installed. Those four ports are all slave
ports fairly similar to their masters but just with a changed
dependency or linking in some optional code or whatever. However
their master ports are attempting to be a bit too clever for their own
good. They detect that you have whatever setting or facility makes
the difference between themselves and their slave port and rename
themselves accordingly. Hence master and slave ports both end up with
the same name.
Cheers,
Matthew
