The solution turns out to be adding

--with-gd2 to /usr/pkgsrc/www/php4/Makefile.php

THEN installing metapkg php4-extensions,

THEN adding the include directive to /usr/pkg/etc/php.ini

(Someone help me find the pkg maintainer please.)

Thanks to all who helped!

Some people are born mediocre, some people achieve mediocrity, and some
people have mediocrity thrust upon them.
