I normally would assume so, but here is what bothered me.  From the
install page comments:

but

    lindy laurence # emerge mod_python -p

    These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

    Calculating dependencies... done!
    [ebuild   R   ] dev-python/mod_python-3.1.4-r1
    lindy laurence #

which would indicate that Gentoo's stable mod_python still isn't new
enough, odd as that sounds.  It's only one patchlevel higher than
Sarge's version.

OK, well, that's reassuring, and maybe indicates that that comment is
wrong and Sarge is likely to work too.
