portupgrade apache2 forgets modules, trashes other modules (svn)

I've built Apache2 from ports with PROXY and SSL modules, which are not
in the default set. When I do a portupgrade to apache2, it only
builds the default set so I lose my PROXY and SSL capabilities.
I've had to rebuild the port from the port directly, and specify the
non-default modules. Shouldn't the port remember which modules I've
asked for and build those when I do a portupgrade? If so, how do I do this?
My "manual" build of ports/web/apache2 went OK and I did a "deinstall"
and "reinstall" to replace the old port. But this removed some
critical modules like Subversion's DAV support! How do I prevent this
in the future? I didn't expect the port to remove software installed
by other ports.
Thanks.
