Huh? Having control over what modules go into your Apache, plus having one compiled on your machine for your version, is zero added value? I think most people on this list would disagree with you. Most of us who depend on Apache build our own for one reason or another. You can generally make an Apache that fulfills your needs and no more which consumes less memory and has less dependencies than a prebuilt binary from somewhere. And being tied to a vendor release schedule probably qualifies as far more of an "upgrade nightmare" than having to occasionally pull out the text file where you put your build procedure.
