 But this will not work for new users installing the apache server, as they
 will read the httpd.conf file and place their local content into the
 ../share/apache/htdocs directory.
 
 The best solution is to install the apache *.html.* files into
 ../share/doc/apache, and then only copy index.html.en to
 ../www/data/index.html, only if there is no index.html file in the
 ../www/data directory.
 
 When the port is uninstalled, it compares ../www/data/index.html to
 ../share/doc/apache/index.html.en before deciding to deleting index.html.
 
 The apache13-fp port uses this method.
