>Description:
CVS revision 1.42 of pkgsrc/www/php4/Makefile changed "UPGRADE_PKG" to
a null string. As a result, when the post-install rule is executed
make passes to the shell a for statement with a null list argument.
Some shells (including /bin/sh on Solaris) reject this as syntactically
invalid. As a result, "bmake install" returns an error.

"bmake install" output on Solaris 9:

>Fix:
To work around the problem I simple commented out the problematic
for ... done section, and was able to install the package:
