While it would be nice for the plist to be generated based on the
--with-layout (and other hacks), frankly am quite used to cleaning up after
doing a pkg_delete. The apache13 port uses FreeBSD.layout and IMO, the
plist need only be able to reflect that layout and assume responsibility
when deviating from it.
Though I did find some gratuitous changes to http.conf. That is not a
ports issue, but is also something I have groan used to (pun intended). ;)

This I like. Agree that the differences with apache13-modssl seem
gratuitous. There is no reason to run both, when one can do both. More so
when dealing with a DSO ssl due to extra memory usage being a non issue.
The changes also remove some of the Makefile clutter and reflects the
change from static to dynamic modules.
All for consistency and the eventual unification.
