>Description:
        It would be nice to have a mechanism to specify which PHP modules we want built at once without having to comment the Makefile nor build each module individually. This would be similiar to how APACHE_MODULES works, only using PKG_OPTIONS. This could also be ported to meta-pkgs/php4-extensions and other packages like aspell and ispell which have many dictionaries. Admins are lazy. Let's make our jobs even easier.
>How-To-Repeat:
        cd meta-pkgs/php5-extensions; bmake; bmake update; curse when 3x the modules you want are built.
>Fix:
        create options.mk for meta-pkgs/php5-extensions
