I was trying your configuration, and then tried several permutations, and
found the problem: whenever USE_APACI is missing or USE_APACI=0, the
resulting httpd segfaults.
For example, with
perl Makefile.PL DYNAMIC=1 EVERYTHING=1 or
perl Makefile.PL DYNAMIC=1 EVERYTHING=1 USE_APACI=0, httpd segfaults.
perl Makefile.PL DYNAMIC=1 EVERYTHING=1 USE_APACI=1 gives me a working
httpd.
Thanks for your help.

While it is of course trivial to patch the docs, I think that's the wrong
approach.
What's the point of an option that has to have a specific value?
If the USE_APACI=1 option is required, it no longer is an option and
should be removed completely.
Or, if the option is kept, the cause for the segfault should be fixed.

Aw, heck.  I was just in the middle of writing a message to you about
this when your message came in!  Glad you got it working.  :)

I think the docs could do with a patch... (hint:).
