lang/php4 and www/mod_php4 were two distinct ports, and he wanted to
make a separate port with the PEAR bundled packages.

Yes, pear should depends upon lang/php, but it was replacing parts
installed by www/mod_php4.

I had tested Dirk's pre-version, and it was OK for me, but he faced some
difficulties and finally committed the current port.
