I made a reply there.

The difference in 2.4 is the (dynamic) balancer manager which requires
each vhost to have its own shm/sem.

Probably not if you configure the balancers in the vhosts they are
used only (see [1]).

They seem correct should the balancers be configured globally, which
is not how it should be done in 2.4.
Each vhost should declare the balancers it uses (ProxyPass) only, and
mod_macro can help do things in the global section (if that matters).
