php is not on the Host:
# eix -I php apache
No matches found

It is on the Target, as a dependency of www-apps/pihole-admin-lte 
(tatsh-overlay) while apache is a dependency of php with USE=apache2. 
All as expected.

Looking at the pihole-admin-lte ebuild I find this:

BDEPEND="app-misc/jq app-portage/portage-utils"
RDEPEND="app-admin/sudo
	dev-lang/php[fileinfo,filter,gd,intl,session,sqlite,tokenizer]
	net-dns/pihole
	virtual/httpd-php"

Humm, interesting, jq is another package that crossdev wants to install 
on the Host. BDEPEND are build-time dependencies and it is correctly 
cross-built on Host but for some reason crossdev wants to build it also 
for the Host.

Could it be an issue with the pihole-admin-lte ebuild rather than 
apache's? I'd need to understand ebuilds, easier said than done...
