The default path is compiled in. Try 'httpd -V' and you will
see something like:

Server compiled with....
 -D HTTPD_ROOT="/usr/local/etc/httpd"
 -D SERVER_CONFIG_FILE="conf/httpd.conf"

I don't use pkgsrc and configure --with-layout= the old layout hence the
different directory.

How do you start the httpd at boot-up? rc.local? Why not include the -f option
there?
