I spent a good part of Saturday trying to get Apache 2.0.43 and PHP 4.3.0 RC2 up and running. Unlike the 1.3 series, which now takes me 15 minutes to set up, I spent probably close to 6 hours on it.
When I finally got it working, I found that many directives I used in .htaccess files no longer work, a few quirks appeared in my PHP applications (Squirrelmail and other home grown sites), the Komodo debugger wouldn't work anymore, and Apache child processes kept dying with segmentation faults. After all of this, I decided it wasn't quite ready for prime time, so I at least closed the security holes and added cURL support (the main feature I needed to install). I installed Apache 1.3.27 & PHP 4.2.3, and all the little quirks just went away. I would suggest, for security reasons, upgrading your server to at least Apache 1.3.27 & PHP 4.1.3. Unless you want to live dangerously on the bleeding edge, stay away from Apache 2 for now...
