The Apache2 page linked form the MAMP > page shows how to deal with that too. I’ve been building and running a local copy of php56-apache2handler against apache24-devel for over a year now. No problems. Apache has considered apache 2.4.x as the stable branch for quite some time. My current patches are for php56-apache2handler are at http://git.hmug.org/index.php/ports/tree/master/lang/php/ I do agree with Ryan that the MacPorts version of apache24-devel is not prime time yet, as the Portfile needs some clean up before it can replace apache2.
