I am not an expert but I THINK this is the answer to your question.

"make install" *will* overwrite /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd and the other 
binaries.  /usr/local/apache/conf/*.conf will not be overwritten, instead 
additional sets with an altered filename will appear there.

To preserve your 1.3.9 installation in case you have a problem, take a backup 
copy of /usr/local/apache/bin.

Someone else who knows more than me will no doubt advise that following 
http://www.modssl.org/example/ is probably not a good idea - it really is just 
an example but you're probably missing some configuration options that you 
might want (eg. MM shared memory libary, DSO support) or (depending upon your 
home jurisdiction) might need (eg RSAref).  See
