upstream should be educated then ;)

You'll need to work around that and version the tarball manually, I think this
is covered in the wiki somewhere.

I'm not sure it really makes a difference, but it reduces predictability if
apxs is picked from $PATH.

more nit-picking^W^Wreview:

1) this stuff is unnecessary obfuscation:

%define base proxy_html
%define modname mod_%{base}

Name: %{modname}

the spec file is for building mod_proxy_html, not an abstract httpd module; so
use "Name: mod_proxy_html" and hard-code proxy_html as necessary and
mod_proxy_html or %{name} otherwise.

2) the with-xml options should go; the module should be linked against -lxml2
and the conf file purged of LoadFile unconditionally.  The upstream method of
providing a deliberately broken module is totally crazy and not something that
should be supported (even as an option) in Fedora.

otherwise looks fine.
