If one goes with an explicit version numbering scheme like 
/usr/apache/2.2.6 then we have to keep migrating the configuration files 
(that users could've modified) when we rev the revision. That doesn't 
seem like it would contribute to a good user experience for someone 
looking to simply upgrade their Apache 2.2.x installation to the latest 
patch/revision.

This was the motivation for my post.
