The apache* ports themselves have changed quite a bit recently.
Previously, if you wanted php3, you'd install apache13-php3, which
happily lived in /usr/ports/www with apache13, apache13-ssl,
apache13-modssl, apache13-php4, and so on. We now have mod_php3 and
mod_php4, which use the apache13 port instead of bringing in another
differently configured (dir/file names, etc.).
The apache13 port used (and uses) /usr/local/www/data and
/usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf by default -- the apache13-php3 port
used /usr/local/share/apache/htdocs and apache.conf by default. With
the emergence of the mod_php{3,4} ports, apache.conf and
/usr/local/share/apache/htdocs are no longer used since those ports now
use the apache13 port.
Is any of this making sense?
