Yeah, but absolutely no-one is doing that these days and in Apache's case
it'd be a real dumb thing to do since it'll fork off X servers when it's
started since it's a pre-forker (depends on the config files of course).

Put it in the correct place for the config defaults, if the config defaults
are stand alone it should be /usr/local/sbin, if they're to use
inetd then /usr/local/libexec.
