Today I do
port selfupdate

port list installed
shows
php5 @5.2.4 www/php5
and the outdated list indicates the same version number.
`port list ...` is a bit quirky. If you check the documentation, you'll see that it says "lists the most recent version of each given port". What you expected was the output of the more intuitive command `port installed`, which would have shown you both the actual version of your installed PHP, and its variants.
If the outdated version number was also 5.2.4, it's possible that the port's maintainer made some improvements to the port and incremented its revision (a secondary number checked after the version to see if a port is outdated).
