A few weeks ago, freebsd switched to php5-5.3.2 instead of php5-5.2.9.
I see there is now also php52-5.2.13 and pgp52-extensions-1.3 in ports/lang
Can one switch back to 5.2.13 when 5.3.2 is already installed and packages
that depend on PHP
are already compiled with php5-5.3.2

People using php in webpages are getting all kind of errors concerning
depricated functions
such as:

It there a way to specify somewhere something so that these funtions still
can be used ?
There have been several updates to php, php-extensions and php5-*
My php is now 5.3.2, most of my php5-* also 5.3.2, but
a portupgrade didn't want to upgrade php5-filter and php-imap (errors)
of php-extensions. They stayed version 5.2.12, 5.2.12 and 1.3 respectively.
I did

MySQL and Postgresql appear in the freebsd with many different versions.
Normally ports have only one version (the latest) and you upgrade with
portupgrade.
Sometimes a mysql-client or postgresql-client is installed as a dependency
of another port,

When using portupgrade, from time to time, there is a package that displays
an options menu and waits for a interactive response (like hitting OK to
