As I understand it:
a) the port works by installing a library
b) dependant ports search for the library, not the port
c) if the (exact same) library (as determined by version
number) is installed by some other port, the change should be
transparent and the dependant ports should and not try to (re)build
anything.

Hello,

  One more thought - I commented out the pcre extension in the ini file
  and restarted apache after which everything seems to be working fine.

Thank you Robert! It does help a lot. Time to do some cleaning then. :)

/usr/ports/UPDATING seems to imply you should be OK to force delete it -

20081207:
  AFFECTS: users of lang/php5
  AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  As of php 5.2.7, pcre extension is distributed with the core php5 
package, and not as a standalone module anymore.  Follow these steps to 
update your installation:

  Portupgrade users:
   pkg_delete -f php5-pcre-5.2.6
   pkgdb -F
   portupgrade as usual

Hello,

 BTW, wait till php-5.2.8 to do this. I read somewhere that 5.2.7 has
 security issues, but maybe you know better than I do.

Thanks but I know about it. That's why I used ports which have 5.2.8. :)
