Yes, 1.3 is a pre-forking webserver.  For a description of why you
might want to change this, see
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mpm.html and the docs for some of the
other mpms like worker and event.  In particular, a multi-threaded
server can sometimes use substantially less memory.

I see, so prefork is used if another mpm is not specified.  I guess
Gentoo builds mpm-prefork even if USE="-mpm-prefork" is specified
(assuming another mpm is not specified).

I use mod_perl and I can't use a threaded perl.  Does that mean I
can't use a threaded apache2?
