i'm using apache from pkgsrc with added
APACHE_SUEXEC=YES

to mk.conf

works really fine.


of course sometimes you have to customize, anyway instead of criticizing
pkgsrc try emacs21-nox11 package

anyway i still don't understand why make update in libblah that updates
libblah-1.1.3 to libblah-1.1.17 forces huge apps blah1 and blah2 that
requires libblah>=1.1.3 to be rebuild. it's nonsense as most of libraries
are shared (static-only packages should be changed to shared or given flag
for this).
