I guess it's all a matter of taste, but as for myself they've pretty much worked
rather well especially the apache and the mod_ ports. I personnally would prefer
that all of the addons were mod_addon rather than the few that are part of a
base install.  As for doing it your self there's nothing wrong with that, but
the company I work for has reinventing the wheel isseus so again the ports are
right for me. I suppose that if I wanted to jump to apache2.x then I would do it
be hand as there isn't a port available...;)

Cheers,
Mikel
