In my experience, when apache crashes after an upgrade, that usually
means that one (or more) of the modules used in your Apache setup
(httpd.conf) needs to be reinstalled (portupgrade -f).
To try to find out which module(s), I usually disable then one after
another in httpd.conf until apache runs stable again.

For example, it could be php that is the problem.

Good luck!
