apache-common (which contains most of the apache DSOs) conflicts with
"apache (<= 1.3.1-1)".  this could become a problem in the future, but
easily fixed by something like:

	Conflicts: apache (<= 1.3.1-1) | apache-perl (<= 1.3.1-1)

anyway, apache-common is working just fine right now with apache-perl
1.3.9-10 - in fact, apache-perl depends on "apache-common (>= 1.3.9),
apache-common (<< 1.3.10)"


it would be nice if apache-perl could co-exist on the same system as
apache (say by binding to port 8080 or to a different alias IP), but the
package works as advertised.
