The Apache support is only necessary if you want to supply IPP
support for a print service that doesn't already have an IPP listener.
We use it on Solaris, but if you are using CUPS, you don't need the
listener. That being said, I will be fixing it in the next few days when
I fix it's Apache 2.X support. In the meantime, you can configure
--without-apache and it should avoid building the IPP listener
module (mod_ipp.so).
Thanks for the heads-up and the patch to the build infrastructure.
