However, "extra" is the name currently used by the existing OpenSolaris
Apache.  Unless there's a strong reason to change this (for example,
other OS vendors use something like "conf.d") I strongly suggest not
changing this.

/etc/default is a deprecated method of storing configuration
information like this.  It seems that a smf(5) property for the
svc:/network/http:apache2 service is a better way of configuring this
information.
