Swup grabs the first one it finds that provides mod_php, I would have to
test to see if that would be php4 or php5, probably the first one as
it's the first one in a sorted list.

Anyway, whatever one swup selects is not really important since the user
obviously has no preference on the matter.

If one later needs something that requires the other alternative for
mod_php, the user can make that switch by changing which version is
started from httpd.
