Keep a copy of the old, Cobalt-supplied httpd so you can go back to it if
you break anything too badly. When you build apache, make sure you include
all the modules that the Cobalt one had (find out what the Cobalt one had by
doing an httpd -l). Then follow the instructions on how to build it and
php4.

You'll also get the latest Apache that way. I've personally given up with
expecting packages to do these things from Cobalt for my RaQ2, and just
build stuff from scratch. Haven't run into any problems yet.
