What I currently do is something similar to what you do above, but with a link from /var/www/myserver/modules to /opt/apache/httpd-2.0.55/modules so I can use /var/www/myserver as serverroot. It is a pity that one cannot give apache two base paths as argument, ie a "serverroot" and a "webroot", a bit analog to "CATALINA_BASE" and "CATALINA_HOME" for tomcat, which lets me do exactly what I want.
