That would be really helpful and much appreciated!

I did try to get ap-php working with php-7.4 and apache 2.4 and it
compiled OK, but fails at runtime:

httpd: Syntax error on line 175 of /usr/pkg/etc/httpd/httpd.conf: Can't
locate API module structure `php_module' in file
/usr/pkg/lib/httpd/mod_php7.so: Undefined symbol "php_module"

I note there is now discussion on pkgsrc-users about removing php-56
and php-74. Hopefully these will stick around till I can update a
website running a very old version (2.5) Joomla

Thanks,
Dave
