Thanks. I think I may be more confused now than I was before :)

Forget what I told you before about php5-mysql not working. I finally
completed round 2 of refactoring a few minutes ago. See #19091 for
details but the database module ports (like php5-mysql) now work and
the corresponding variants have been removed from php5.
I tend to want things to be as clean and simple as I can get them
to make sure I can use this in production.
If I was starting with a clean macports install, and I wanted
apache2, mysql5 server, and php with mcrypt, gd, imap, and maybe
sqlite, what would you recommend as the new install commands? I
use curl a lot, do I need to factor that in?
At this point, simply install the php5 module ports for the features
you want. You should also upgrade php5 to 5.3.0_2. There are still a
few remaining variants in the php5 port for modules which are not yet
available in separate ports.
I would probaably go:
sudo port install apache2
sudo port php5-imap
sudo port php5-mysql +mysql5 (but I need server, or roll my own
launchd?)
If you need a mysql5 server, install the port mysql5-server. :)
The default +mysqlnd variant of the php5-mysql port now works, and I
recommend you try it. It's not for everyone, but it should be fine
for most people and is nice because it does not have a dependency on
a mysql port.
sudo port install php5-curl
Suggestions?
Sounds like you are doing this in a way that it will be painless to
clean it all up when you get the work all done, so I am not too
worried.
Thanks for all your work on this, it looks like a much better
method in the long run. I do not envy you for app the php5-'s you
have to make. Then again, one perl module can easily take me down
that road in a heartbeat, so I somewhat feel your pain.
