Might break some other packages if there are more dependencies involved.

The problem is that mod_php depends on a virtual/mta package. You have
postfix installed which provides that package, but you masked the
current versions (have a look at /usr/portage/net-mail/postfix to see
all available versions, I think your masking needs to be updated). If
you would not have postfix installed I think portage would install the
default virtual/mta (net-mail/ssmtp), but this would be a problem too as
it conflicts with postfix.
