The problem is not due to /var/lib/dpkg/info/apache.postinst, but to
/usr/share/apache/postinst.common, which is provided by apache-common.
apache.postinst simpy includes /usr/share/apache/postinst.common on line 8.

Note that this bug is not reproducible installing the package
"normally"; it seems that the only way to reproduce the bug is 
running the package installation through an at/cron job.

The interruption of the script is due to a piece of code which actually
does nothig:

        if ! $apacheconfig "$@"< /dev/tty > /dev/tty; then
	^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
	     # FIXME
	     # debconf note
#       echo
#       echo -n "Configuration failed!
#       "
#       echo "Run \"apache-sslconfig\" to try this again later."
#       echo
            true
        fi
