Just to follow up and answer my own question.

We're now using MySQL for Basic Auth with Apache. The Debian package
apache_mod_auth_mysql seems to be unmaintained and Apache uses it's own
version of MD5 crypt so we patched our own version of
apache_mod_auth_mysql. The user/passwords are kept in sync with MySQL
replication.
