You talk about "knowledge", but that's just a matter of remembering the stuff.
So, as I said, seems like the concern is more related to a nice named tarball
for EAPI than technically related. Hmmm.. the problem is that I then have to
maintain one more Apache-related package. I'm not convinced it is worth
the overhead. Hmmm...

It always was able to run a standard Apache module without changes, of course.
What you talk about is a DSO _binary_ of a standard Apache module. Yes, with
the latest version of EAPI you can load both DSOs which were aware of EAPI at
compile-time _and_ modules compiled with plain Apache's.
