There aren't any 'apache' defaults. All Distros do it differently. You're probably best to install using packages as opposed to installing from source, as that way any other packages (i.e PHP, mod_perl)you install will be installed with the correct file paths, etc.
Alternately, you can simply change the httpd.conf file to point to the directories you want to use, or simply create the directories as per the httpd.conf/.layout file. Is there a particular reason you chose to install from source?
