I talked with Rainer about this and we came to the conclusion, that we simply should keep non-default modules commented out, even if they have been explicitly enabled with --enable-foo. This has also the advantage that it is more likely that the user will only enable what he currently needs, even if he has built some additional modules he may need later.

Definite +1.

I hear from time to time people saying that httpd is "big", but it turns out they're just loading a bunch of modules they didn't need when they started with a default config. It's particularly important for distros, where most/all modules are likely to be compiled in anyway, but the default config should remain lean.
