suPHP is not production-ready either:
- it only touches PHP, so the rest of Apache sub-processes and modules
will still run as apache/apache
- it runs PHP in CGI mode, which is horribly slow
- due to CGI mode, you can't use eAccelerator or Zend Cache or anything of
that kind
(i.e., suPHP has no real advantage over Apache's own suexec)

The Peruser MPM, if debugged, would be the perfect solution to a great
many Apache/PHP/Perl/etc permission and security issues.

Of note: Perchild / Metux MPM also exist, but since they are threaded it
requires all modules to be thread-safe, which is not realistic. Peruser is
forked, which works much more reliably.
