Hello Dmitry, and thank you for your response.

Yes. I tried that already. But didn't have the effect I was striving
for - duplicate the /current/ PHP install, but changing php/ to php5/
and simply adding php5/ to the bin path (bin/php5). Although your
first suggestion might be ideal for a jail.

OK. That's the layout I had hoped to achieve. So looks like I'll be
cobbling up some (e)grep(1) | find(1) | sed(1) scripts to best accomplish
this. I was hoping a simple tweak in the portinstall/*.bsd.mk might be
available. Oh well, I'd have needed to add some patches to create a port
anyway. So now that know that there's no kludge, I'll just have at it.

Thank you for your informative answer Dmitry.
That was exactly what I needed. :)

Best wishes.
