That is the set of instructions I was looking for... I know I've seen them 
someplace, but cannot find them anywhere! 
I don't see them in the Portfile for apache2. Maybe they have just gotten lost 
in an upgrade.

They should be something like:

sudo /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/apache2.wrapper stop
sudo /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/apache2.wrapper start
sudo /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.apache2/apache2.wrapper restart

It's not the most obvious thing in the world.
