Order of evaluation is actually Apache behaviour so not really a
mod_python problem. Issue comes up though due to typical way that
mod_python has to be used to do things.

That was written back before mod_wsgi 1.0 was released. Since then,
they at least removed the statement 'but the module is not considered
stable just yet'. :-)
If you want some confidence that it is okay for use with Trac, it is
on public record that trac-hacks.org switched to it.
http://groups.google.com/group/modwsgi/browse_frm/thread/8cc360a1a6cf7c7f
I presume it still is using it. Another notable site using it for Trac
is pocoo.org.
http://lucumr.pocoo.org/cogitations/2007/09/09/weekly-updates/
http://lucumr.pocoo.org/cogitations/2007/09/12/multi-trac-django-hosting-with-mod_wsgi/
Only significant issue at the moment is:
http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/issues/detail?id=30
This was found by code inspection and not known for sure anyone has
hit it. The pocoo.org site has seen occasional segmentation fault, but
not for Trac application, and they have applied this patch. No
indication yet how things are going now and whether it was this issue
or something else unrelated.
Either way, if you use mod_wsgi, no harm in applying that patch.
Also trying to resolve an issue with one site trying to host behind
HTTPS and using daemon mode.
Overall though, everything has been going very well and I don't
believe you should be concerned about stability. Hopefully in time
those who manage Trac and the documentation will see things are going
well, and the 'somewhat experimental' tag in the documentation will be
dropped.
