The NTLM/SSPI protocols haven't changed in a long time. Why should the
projects that support this tech need 'activity' on something that
works?

Indeed. There is more to life as an apache module than authentication,
in Apache 2.2 there is optionally authorization, and in 2.4 there is
no 'optional' about it. So mod_auth_sspi will never exist for Apache
2.4. Instead, there is (alpha) mod_authnz_sspi

https://www.apachehaus.net/modules/mod_authnz_sspi/

which seems to be supplied as a binary module, with no source code...

The software you want is not compatible with your choice of web
server. The way I see it, you have four choices:

1) Use Apache 2.2 and mod_auth_sspi
2) Use Apache 2.4, port mod_auth_sspi to Apache 2.4
3) Use Apache 2.4, use binary mod_authnz_sspi, live with the security issues
4) Continue looking!
