I have several <VirtualHost> and numerous <Directory> sections that have large sets of identical directives. If there a way to define a "subroutine" in httpd.config that can be called in these sections?
If you want to be able pass simple "parameters" to the "subroutine" sections, check out mod_macro at
<http://cri.ensmp.fr/~coelho/mod_macro/>.
I use it for vhosts the way you describe, and I really like it.
An example:
---8<---
<Macro Reverse %address %admin %server %domain %aliases>
<VirtualHost %address>
ServerAdmin %admin
ServerName www.%domain
ServerAlias %domain %aliases
Include /usr/local/etc/apache22/filter/proxy.conf
ProxyPass / http://%server/ keepalive=on retry=10
ProxyPassReverse / http://%server/
ProxyErrorOverride On
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain %server www.%domain
CacheEnable disk /
</VirtualHost>
</Macro>
Use Reverse 10.0.7.11:80 admin@xxxxxxxx 10.0.7.13 edbu.org w3.edbu.org
Use Reverse 10.0.7.11:80 admin@xxxxxxxx 10.0.7.13 wfdb.org w3.wfdb.org
Use Reverse 10.0.7.202:80 admin@xxxxxxxx 10.0.6.10 fsdb.se w3.fsdb.se

There are 28 more "Use Reverse " lines in the config, with different
addresses and admins, and some with a whole bunch of aliases at the end.
And then there's a bunch of vhosts using other macros as well. This way
made it a lot easier to maintain than using includes.
Another option could be mod_perl, wich, IIRC, allows you to use perl in the config files.
