I disagree about removing the apache2 flag. The flag is not used to
select which version of apache to install (portage installs 2.0 by
default as it's the highest stable version), but for the modules that
can support apache-1.3 or apache-2.0. If the apache2 flag is not set,
and someone tries installing a module that supports both, the module
will depend on apache-1.3 (even if apache-2.0 is already installed) -
the modules uses the USE-flag to determine which version to depend on.


Additionally the latest Cacti will attempt to install lighthttpd as the default webserver if neither apache or apache2 are set in your USE flags. I ran into that on an older server running apache 1.3 and -apache2 in make.conf.
