Put ">net-www/apache-2.0" in my /etc/portage/package.mask and that kept
me at using apache-1.3.31.  Nice.  Thanks.

Took me a few minutes to get the mask idea.  I was thinking it should be
use "<=net-www/apache-2.0" and it wasn't working.  But it's more of a
filter, like don't use ">=net-www/apache-2.0".

Thanks,
Rob
