Does apache support conditionals (similar to the IfModule) which could
be leveraged to make this kind of choice at start time? It'd be nice
to ship optimized configuration for specific Sun hardware platforms (+
a generic one) and have the best available chosen at run time. (If
apache does not yet support a mechanism to do that, it'd be a nice
enhancement to do. Nick?)

Well with SVR4 postinstall it would've been easy, but that's no longer
relevant.

The filters IPS intends to introduce could also be used, although I
don't know how if the currently planned attributes are going to be
specific enough for this level of selection. You should check out the
current IPS RFEs and if there isn't one that seems to fit this need,
file one to track that.
