When one PHP extension depends of another, the order they are loaded in
extensions.ini matters and can break it. It's easy to reproduce:

security/php-suhosin depends of www/php56-session, then recently php56 was
updated to 5.6.14 but suhosin was not. Then php56-session was updated on the
system and it was added to the end of /usr/local/etc/php/extensions.ini.

PHP ended up trying to load suhosin.so before session.so and it ended up with a
message like:

Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library
'/usr/local/lib/php/20131226/suhosin.so' -
/usr/local/lib/php/20131226/suhosin.so: Undefined symbol "ps_globals" in
Unknown on line 0

After re-order extensions.ini, manually or simply reinstalling php-suhosin,
everything worked fine.
