>Description:
	The Apache section in the Porter's Handbook is out-of-date.
	It describes the old usage of USE_APACHE.

	
>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:
	Based on my understanding to bsd.apache.mk, the following
	text should be put into the Apache section.
	
	Hope some experts on apache ports can help to improve
	this text.

=====
Variables for ports that use Apache:

USE_APACHE	The port requires Apache. Possible values: 1.3/13/2.0/20/2.1/2.2/1.3+/2.0+/2.1+/2.2+ or common13/common20/common21/common22. common* are used if this port is an Apache server port.

You can use ${APXS} and ${HTTPD} to get the full path to apxs and httpd.
They can also be overwritten if they are not in the default place.

The following variable are automatically substituted in pkg-plist:

APACHEMODDIR	Directory for Apache modules (PREFIX/APACHEMODDIR). (read-only variable)
APACHEINCLUDEDIR	Directory for Apache headers (PREFIX/APACHEINCLUDEDIR). (read-only variable)
