apache-2.0 includes a prefork mpm (behaves just like 1.x, no threads),
mod_perl-2.0 works with that mpm with or without ithreads.  so worst case,
you get 2.0 functionality without threading.  but, i think it is worth
taking a run at making threaded-2.0 usable in a production
environment.  something that was *impossible* without ithreads.
