If you look at /etc/init.d/httpd, you will see:
if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/httpd ]; then
. /etc/sysconfig/httpd
fi
So the initialisation script sources that file. If you want to set
Environment variables that are available when Apache starts, it would
make sense to try adding those variables to /etc/sysconfig/httpd - it
might do what you want for minimal effort...
